<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 2154744, member: 26302"]I would basically do this except a $2 bill instead of a $2.50 one. As an interim step, make all one cent coins worth 5 cents, stop minting nickels, and give out specs for $1, $2, and $5 coins but only continue minting the $1 coin. That way vending operators only need change once. Discontinue the dollar bill. Then slowly phase out $2 and $5 in place of coins as the situation dictated. Eventually drop the "now copper plated zinc" 5 cent pieces.</p><p> </p><p>As for the subject matter, amend the Constitution to prohibit any politician from being on coinage.
