<p>[QUOTE=&quot;aviko, post: 134959, member: 5498&quot;]Carl,</p><p>Here is what we Israelis have to put up with:</p><p>Our largest diameter coin is the bronze 1/2 Sheqel while the 1Sheqel coin is even smaller than the 5 Agorot one (and it&#039;s 20 times it&#039;s worth). </p><p>Basically I think the size of our coins, which don&#039;t carry such a long history as the US ones (we use them since 1984 - when the country stabilized the hyper inflation and introduced the current monetary system), is derived from the easiness of their identification by buyers and sellers. Thus they serve their purpose. Following the same logic, I think your dime and cent are so easy to be identified so they don&#039;t create problems to the end user. </p><p>Avi[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
