<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WarNickelFinder, post: 1192192, member: 28662&quot;]When I was in second grade (1997-1998), halves was part of our math curriculum.&nbsp; We cut out cardboard cents, nickels, dimes, quarters, and halves.&nbsp; In addition to being educated about what each denomination was worth, we had to name each president on the coin.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t be until 2001 that I knew that halves were available at banks.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, that same year, I was with my dad at the car wash and I saw my first Anthony dollar.&nbsp; After the wash, he bought one coin for me to keep and I presented it at show and tell the next day.&nbsp; I wouldn&#039;t know about large dollars until I was probably 15 or 16 when my mother bought me a bicentennial Ike.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since last year, I&#039;ve spent twos, small dollars, and occasionally halves.&nbsp; I have rarely encountered any complaints, but it does bug me to see people look for a security thread in a two or take a counterfeit pen to it.&nbsp; I usually comment &quot;Think about it, why would anyone counterfeit $2&#039;s?&quot; and then tell them that they&#039;re available at the bank and new ones may be printed later this year, for fiscal year 2012.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
