[QUOTE="kanga, post: 689076, member: 9270"]Actually I know of one place half dollars are used frequently. Horse racetracks (at least in Maryland). Since payoffs are rounded down (yes, down only!) to the nearest dime, all [U]winning[/U] tickets can be paid using only dimes and halves. (Experience indicates they pay you nothing for losing tickets.)[/QUOTE]
