They are cheap to produce but as GDJMSP pointed out cost money to melt. So they just sit there taking up space while MORE are being minted? Now THAT&#039;S government in action there!</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s obvious I don&#039;t like them (dollar coins) but I&#039;ll tell you what. The next time I go to the bank I&#039;ll get a roll of WHATEVER dollar coin they have and circulate them. If this is a success I&#039;ll do it until I&#039;m about 1,083 years old to help get them out of the vaults.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m afraid I have to agree with so many others on this point and it hurts being a currency collector as well. THE ONLY way these stinking dollar coins will ever fly is if we get rid of the $1 Federal Reserve Note (bill). I suppose I could actually live with that with enough advance warning. I&#039;d be stocking up on CU (crisp uncirculated) $1 notes as they would do better than the $1 coins in the long run.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
