<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SteveInTampa, post: 1407083, member: 27107&quot;]I do not have a plausible answer, but I can comment on the comparison. Although Canada and the US are neighbors, the monetary differences are like night and day. The United States dollar is the standard of the world, and often conterfeited, while Canadian coins/currency are seldom seen outside of Canada and the bordering states. The new US $100 note is complicated and uses many anti-conterfeiting designs, and it seems that most Americans just aren&#039;t ready to give up paper money in lieu of coins. What the US decides, concerning monetary designs, affects a lot more people than Canadian money, so Americans are involved in more research before changes are made......which takes time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
