<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drago the Wolf, post: 779044, member: 22476&quot;]Okay, I sort of discussed this issue in my &quot;Should the U.S. $1 and $2 bills be redesigned?&quot; topic, but I figured I&#039;d make one more thread that is to the point of the &quot;polymer $1 bill issues&quot;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I just wanted to say that, as you know, a polymer $1 bill should last about 6 years compared to a cotton linen $1 bill lasting only 1 1/2 years, and a polymer $1 bill would probably last even 7 or 8 years if a polymer $2 bill were circulated to take some of the load off the $1 denomination. That 7 to 8 years would be perfect if they ever decide to redesign the $1 and $2 bills regularly with the $5-$100 denominations, as they should. The current $1s and $2s would last long enough to prepare for destruction, just in time to be replaced by their newly redesigned counterpart.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As I said, I know and I agree that both, the $1 and $2 bills should be replaced with coins. I&#039;m all for that, however, most of the American public is not. So, at least for now, how about circulating longer lasting polymer $1 and $2 bills instead?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
