[QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 4871312, member: 105098"]Same thing in the u.s. with small dollar coins and $2 bills. We have a $1 bill and a $5 bill these in the middle "2" things aren't needed regularly more importantly they aren't used and neglected in commerce.if we got rid of the $1 bill there would be no choice but to use the coin, until then, everyone chooses to use dollar bills over the coin. In America we had a 2 cent and 3 cent coin. People preferred to regularly just use the 1 cent and 5 cent instead. Same thing is happening in GB. They are making. 2P coins, everyone is mostly using 1P and 5P. They are making £2 coin, most people and businesses are just using the £1 and £5 and ignoring the £2. Same thing in Canada. People and businesses are ignoring the "twoonie". Why? Because it's not "necessary". Not a big deal. They should stop making these "2" coins. There's no demand except for collectors or accumulators.[/QUOTE]
