<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PEdoubleNIZZLE, post: 183149, member: 794&quot;]Just out of curiosity, I wonder if there was as much uneasiness when they removed the half cent. You can buy items in bulk that are measured in 10/thsw of a cent (don&#039;t include gas in this, because we buy it by the dollar amount, not the gallon.) For example, if a resistor (electrical component) costs$0.027, it gets rounded to 3 cents. No biggie.</p><p><br /></p><p>BUT... if something costs 3 cents, you just lost 2 pennies. Sure, some people just toss them on the ground, but it&#039;s their choice. I say if they do reduce or eliminate the penny, they should still circulate it and make non-collectors aware that hoarding all your pennies will barely be worth it, if at all.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m all for the dollar coin. I ask for them at the bank all the time, as well as $2&#039;s, just to spend them. I have no problem with dollar coins, as long as they have $2 bills circulate more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
