I agree that 'youth' should recognize the coins for what they are, but also feel that if people used them more we wouldn't have these problems. The only time I receive them is when buying a ticket for the subway everyday. In fact, I received a few last week, looked at them, and thought these look like play money - cheap and tacky. The gov't should drop the $1 paper bill and force the billions of these coins sitting in vaults to be released for usage. The are not convenient to use, while paper is lightweight. I never spend them either, they pile up in a jar and I roll them and return them to the bank.

Dollars and halves also make great poker chips. Plus you never have to worry about cashing your chips in because you can take them to the bank. You just have to explain why the bigger coin is worth half as much as the little one!
