<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 481264, member: 66&quot;]That&#039;s 38 coins not 40, and it&#039;s ten dollar coins not twelve making it a 36 coin set.&nbsp; On the other hand since it is a numismatic set the mint could also include both the plated zinc and 95% copper versions of the cent if they chose to making it 16 cents instead of 8.&nbsp; A 44 coin set.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I think you would have problems getting that to circulate even if you did eliminate the dollar bill.&nbsp; It would weight as much as four quarters and their is NOTHING that takes coins that size so EVERY vending machine would have to be modified and get a new coin mechanism to accept them.&nbsp; And it would cost almost as much to make as four quarters.&nbsp; So there would be absolutely no advantage to them.&nbsp; People would just carry the quarters since they weigh the same and the quarters would be much more usable.&nbsp; A 38 mm clad dollar would be a bigger albatross than what we have.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
