<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 892732, member: 25270"]Also, you can't find them anywhere. I really wanted to collect the presidential dollars, so after the Washington coin came out I was fortunate enough to see one in the cash drawer at my local barber (he's the type of guy who would have customers who might use them). After that, I never saw another one, anywhere, ever. I asked at my bank (TCF) if they had any and they told me they didn't get them in so I would have to keep checking back to see if anyone had brought one in recently. Eventually I ended up buying most at a coin shop for twice the face value. So the point I want to make is that even when people do read a story that this coin is coming out, they never see it, and then they forget about it. Americans won't use dollar coins. Banks don't give them out, cashiers don't give them out in change, so where are you supposed to get them? I get more Canadian money in change than half-dollar or dollar coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
