<p>[QUOTE=&quot;19Lyds, post: 1583545, member: 15929&quot;]While this may be true, one could &quot;hope&quot; that the Fed would release some of the bags of IKE&#039;s which still reside within its vaults.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d kinda like to see a public GAO Auction myself since the shear size of the coins, limits reasonable costs for delivery and storage within cash drawers. I have no doubt that folks who saw them in the drawers would want them to put them away so as a circulating monetary tool, they just wouldn&#039;t work.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I think that the biggest obstacle facing dollar coins is that merchants simply don;t bother ordering them to give out in change. These are the folks that prefer paper bills over dollar coins as I don;t really think the general public cares one way or another as long as it spends.</p><p><br /></p><p>Get the big merchants on board, and the coins will be assimilated into circulation but until then, they&#039;ll only rot in the feds vaults.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
