<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 26079423, member: 4626&quot;]The other reason this won&#039;t significantly increase the need for nickels is that although we won&#039;t be minting any more pennies, the pennies that have already been minted are not being recalled and they are still legal tender, so the billions already in circulation will continue to be around for quite a while.&nbsp; This will give people plenty of time to adjust before any rounding of cash transactions to the nearest nickel will be necessary, and cash transactions are becoming less and less common all the time.&nbsp; By the time there&#039;s not enough pennies to go around most people won&#039;t be using cash much anyway.&nbsp; That will more than offset the chance that any given transaction will need a nickel where a nickel wasn&#039;t needed before.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
