<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yakpoo, post: 1514225, member: 18157&quot;]I&#039;m not arguing that point either way. If having coins for &quot;coins sake&quot; is why they&#039;re made, I would love to see new half cents...or two cents...or three cents. Why just keep the penny, nickel, and dime? You wanna know why? ...because they don&#039;t support commerce. Just like the penny, nickel, and dime are obsolete and no longer support commerce. <b>That&#039;s the requirement.</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b></b>You know why coin collecting is going downhill? It&#039;s because folks sock away thousands of boxes of newly minted coins and they never increase in value. I&#039;m not saying we should do away with coins...just the opposite...we should make new coins that have some <b>value in commerce</b>. Why not make 5$, $10, and $20 coins? These coins would actually buy things (support commerce), last longer than paper money, and be painful to sock away in large hoards. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;ll bet we can come up with some REALLY nice designs, too! :thumb:[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
