I saw a 1929 US test bill up for auction with a strip in it. Amazing how many DECADES it took for the technology to catch up!
Nice example and very interesting additional information!

I find these post interesting. Somethings you just don't really think about until.. If I remember correctly when the first strips came out when we were kids, we would pull the strip from the bill.

Now we just need to get rid of cotton fiber-based "paper" and move on to polymer. Australia's new notes are utterly amazing.

Would be nice, but Crane has too much pull. Same reason why we kept the rag dollar over the dollar coin.

From what I've read, the preferred choice of a paper dollar over a round-metallic dollar was an overwhelming vote from the public.

I disagree. Opinion polls from the denizens of CCF and other numismatic communities cannot be correlated to the public at large. The general public will use what they are used to using (paper) or what they are given to use instead (coins). Whenever I have polled people outside of our bubble how they felt... the usually give me a dumb stare and a shrug*. This is not to stay they are stupid. They are ignorant at worst, but most of us are highly adaptable to change.

Congressional inaction comes for lobbying, not the will of their constituents (which they will claim as their reasoning to distract us from the lobbyists' well funded influence).

Personally, getting rid of the rag dollar is a hill I no longer wish to defend.

Now, let us talk about getting that rotten Zincoln out of circulation.


* I will admit my polling numbers are also too small to represent the public at large, for what that is worth.

I wasn't referencing the opinions of numismatic forums. I was referencing a Gallup Poll that showed 53% preferred a dollar bill, 22% preferred a coin and 24% didn't have a preference.

Link? I would like to see it and keep for future reference.

We have had no shortage of "Dollar Coin v. Dollar Note" polls and topics on CCF. I need to look back through them for any outside references I may have missed or since forgotten.

Actually, never mind on the link. I found no shortage of past polls to review, although most of them are quite dated. Now I am reminded why I gave up pushing for change.

But still, get rid of the circulating cent. The polls show that one is a loser.

An opinion born from ignorance and misconceptions about inflation, sales tax, and not knowing it costs more than a cent to make cent. Once educated, most would (or at least should) change their mind. Again, in my own polling (same disclaimer), most want to keep it until I give them those facts.

I will concede that the dollar debate is not as clear cut.

Geez. I have really derailed this topic. My apologies.

Feel free to continue the cent debate in this recent topic...
