Not really a slot for them any more than there is a slot for a $2 note (another &quot;rarity&quot; that is hoarded).</p><p><br /></p><p>Finally, in order to make them really circulate we&#039;d have to get rid of the $1 note.

Bottom line is we haven&#039;t had a circulating dollar coin in quite some time. They&#039;re minted, they&#039;re &quot;rare&quot; therefore they don&#039;t circulate. Warped logic but true.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
