<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 209230, member: 4552"]Just like the Bicentennial Quarters and halves, the sac dollars, Susan B dollars I predict that soon enough the president dollars will also fail. Numerouos people will be saying why am I saving these things, no one wants them. I just can't picture anyone carrying 30 or 40 of those around with them. People are now concentrating on using plastic rather than even paper currency so why would they want a pile of coins the same size as a quarter. Already had to make them Goldish so people would stop spending them as a quarter. There will be a new rash of booklets, folders, albums, etc to hold the new dollars that will not see circulation and the government will broadcast what a success they are because they last so much longer than a paper bill. Of course they do, no one uses them. I went to one of the banks I use and asked for one of those president dollars and they wanted to know if I'd rather have a few thousand. NO, only one please. No one is rushing to my bank for them. I used my only one for tip at a restaurant. The waitress gave me a dirty look. I said it is a dollar. Yeah, right as she walked away. I best no go there again. </p><p>I'm now waiting for some quarters to turn up with a Copper coating to look like a dollar. Obviouly I'm not a fan of the new baby dollar coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
