[QUOTE="lawdogct, post: 58912, member: 1476"]In the rush to protect the strippers, you all forgot about the origami dollar bill books that frequent book stores all over the US. Tough to fold a coin :p I think the largest point of failure for the $1 coin is the vending companies. They're the ones that lobbied and lobbied to have them made, claiming it would be good for their buisness, but then they didn't want to spend the money to update their vending machines. I will have to research it, but I remember reading more than one article on the topic when the Sacs came out. Personally, I don't care one way or another, but I'll say this, I'd rather have a pound of $1 bills than a pound of $1 coins ;) (Kudos to anyone that can figure out the difference in $$ amounts)[/QUOTE]
