Save Uncirculated 2007 Washington $1 Coin?

Spend them, you'd be surprised to find that many people have never seen one before.

Same thought here. Spend 'em.

I pick up a few rolls every time I go to the bank, check them, then put them in my pocket a few at a time and spend them like any other currency.

I agree, why not spend them.....

Next week 4/15 thru 4/21 is national coin week and I will be using ONLY dollar coins in my store, I will accept bills but will only give $ coins in change, and will give a discount to customers that pay with dollar coins.

Just make sure you have a back up dollar in case someone will not accept them. I've found if you use them in restaurants as tips you'll get dirty looks, have to explain they are real, best not go there again. As for tolls, nothing like holding up a line at a toll booth when someone says what the #)(%()Y#)_( is this supposed to be. Lady at Walmart said I have no place for these, can't you use anything else? One of the banks I go to keeps asking people if they want them and seldom anyone does. Conductors on our commuter trains really don't want them, no place in coin changer, but will take them if you insist but be carefull getting off the train. I tried spending some but not worth the aggrevation. Can't leave them on a bar when drinking. Bartenders will pick them up thinking they are a quarter. Used to be fun but now lost the desire to aquaint the world of those things.

I should showed one of them at school the other day now all the kids want them to spend (they think it's real gold) and they say they're smart

Thanks for all the posts to answer my questions.

BTW, I used to live in Canada, where they use one dollar coins ("Loonies") & two dollar coins ("Toonies"). One company came out with a very useful item: a small flat black heavy duty plastic holder that would hold 8 of these coins at once, 4 on each side. They would slide in & out with thumb pressure. Very convenient & compact, so these heavy coins were not jingling in your pocket & wearing holes in the cloth. If something like that were available here in the US, I think that would go a long way in popularizing these coins.

Any inventors out there? There must be something like that already available. Anyone know?
