<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 134962, member: 39&quot;]Another reason why the &quot;odd&quot; sizes of US coins are not really confusing is that they have very few denominations in everyday life - basically the penny, the nickel, the dime and the quarter. The half dollar is virtually non-existent as far as I can tell, and the dollar coin is much less popular than the $1 note.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the European currency union, for example, there are eight coin denominations. Like in Israel, we have three different &quot;alloy groups&quot;, and within each group, a piece with a higher face value is larger than one with a lower value. So your setup makes a lot of sense from what I am used to, except maybe that the size difference between the 1 sheqel and 5 sheqalim coins could be a little smaller. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
