<p>[QUOTE=&quot;predcarn, post: 158825, member: 6000&quot;]It appears that financially, all of the denominations have a use, and thus</p><p>exists an argument that the cent and nickle should remain. It would seem</p><p>then that a change in composition would be the way out of the problem.</p><p>As was said in &quot;The Graduate&quot;~Plastics. Sure, a metal coin could last as</p><p>much as 25 years in circulation, but more and more stores have a cup of</p><p>free cents to make up a difference between 1-5 cents on a purchase,</p><p>and more people are leaving the extra cents instead of pocketing them</p><p>with the extra change, so why not make the cents in plastic, different</p><p>colors, special combos of colors. People would collect them out of </p><p>circulation before they wear out. Maybe 50 diffferent colors per year.</p><p>TPG could label them MS70 First Molding, Errors would be colors swirled</p><p>rather than just one, the numismatic industry would soar, new books,</p><p>new folders, new hype, and the old cents would disppear and I would</p><p>have to buy real washers from Home depot(tm). <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> AIMHO.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
