[QUOTE="Drago the Wolf, post: 1360039, member: 22476"]Well, I figured that, because, back then $5,000 or $10,000 was a lot of money. Still must have been a neat thing to see. Only, supposedly, because the silver content was not removed from the half at the same time as it was from the quarter and dime, and I believe that, had the half went to copper clad back then, they would still be circulating. From all of the hoarding for the next five years, that killed people's habits of being used to halves in the future, so all they need is another boost to get them popular, which would be, banks handing them out as needed, and vending and self checkout machines accepting and dispensing them as needed, as I have repeated over and over on different coin websites. Yes, I've heard that the $2 bill IS slowly regaining popularity, although I do not know where, as I have never received one in change. But if the $2 bill IS making a comeback, then so can the half. If you do spend $2 bills, then like me, you should also spend halves. And while I like spending dollar coins, they do not interest me as much as $2 bills or halves.[/QUOTE]
