<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mamooney, post: 170006, member: 2724&quot;]I think the idea of the new Presidential coinage is great.&nbsp; With sufficient supplies and lack of hoarding, I feel that these coins can be popular and useful.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; I just wish that some of our large retailers would sign on with the government and just use such coins in their change.&nbsp; The USPS already does it in their machines.&nbsp; I wish they would do it at the counter as well.&nbsp; It is not fiscally responsible.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Scrap the $1 Note first.....then redesign all of the US Coinage.&nbsp; We should pay no heed to the vending machine and casino world and force them to adapt.&nbsp; &nbsp; I am for any possiblity of composition, weight, edge (reeding/smooth)reeding, size, denomination and shape changes.&nbsp;&nbsp; The government should not be losing money making money.</p><p><br /></p><p>For Fun,&nbsp; lets all Take a look at the bills in our wallet and the coins in our pockest and note the dates.&nbsp; It is a safe wager that there are not many&nbsp; bills over 5 years old in your pocket while you still probably have a small sampling of coins up to 30 years old in your pocket.&nbsp;&nbsp; To me that is a good case for dumping low denominational currency that has such a short life.</p><p><br /></p><p>1990 P Quarter</p><p>1989 P Dime</p><p>1975 Nickel</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>2 2001 Dollars</p><p>3 2003 Dollars</p><p>1 1976 2 Dollar Bill (from the bank)</p><p>1 2001 Five</p><p>2 2003 Fives</p><p>1 2001 Twenty</p><p>2 2004 Twenties</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: Red"><b>If you haven&#039;t already, check out <a href="http://www.coinflation.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinflation.com" rel="nofollow">www.coinflation.com</a> daily intrinsic coin values.</b></span>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
