<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sunbird, post: 8281007, member: 116324&quot;]Yeah, I think you can probably use Canadian quarters a lot of the time as well. That&#039;s always been true, since the dimensions are a near match. And they&#039;re made of steel, so much cheaper to mint oneself. I guess an interesting move would be US quarters made of steel. But if people wanted to be able to use them in machines, they&#039;d need to go nonferrous and hit the right weight.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s a shame the US Mint has been so bad at consistency with the circulation coinage. There are so many quarters, and no one is going to know what they all look like. And so many dollar coins, forget about it. It&#039;s far too confusing, kind of like how US banknotes have a bunch of different security features for different denominations, and virtually no one knows which features go with which note. It&#039;s a mess.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
