<p>[QUOTE=&quot;moneycostingmemoney, post: 2763639, member: 86367&quot;]All due respect, and I do mean that, but you sound like the last guy. I&#039;m not saying that you are wrong and everyone would love to get a half rather than 2 quarters, but how can you say that everyone hates halves like you&#039;ve done extensive research and this is a fact. &quot;Ew, um...no. Can you take that crappy last-week coin back and give me two quarters before I die?&quot; &quot;Ey, yo. What are ya tryin ta do to me, make me drown in a puddle? Get outa heah wit dat anvil and gimme two quawtas.&quot; I mean cmon. That&#039;s what I keep reading instead of reasons why it is still around or when it started to loose popularity. Thank you for not making it sound like the half is the reason banks are going to crumble in this shifting economic environment, but please give some usable insight. And I&#039;m not disagreeing that one day, like all coins after a good, long run (except the Roosevelt Dime that will probably see the second coming) the Kennedy half will disappear. I believe (&lt;key term, not stating fact) it will be replaced with another .50 piece, probably something of a smaller form factor. Can anyone remember when this denomination became so undesireable? It&#039;s been around as long as the Quarter and, if not for general circulation, why is the thing still being minted if everyone hates it so much?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
