jbuck Moderator United States 189340 Posts	Posted 07/31/2015 09:48 am Quote: I think they should eliminate the quarter, nickel and penny, round to the nearest $.10 and bring back the half dollar. So I voted yes. I would be good with this. Need to kill off the one, two, and five dollar notes as well, replace them all with coins. A figurative shifting of the decimal point.

jbuck Moderator United States 189340 Posts	Posted 07/31/2015 10:07 am No, they need to circulate. Printing one, two, and even five dollar notes is a waste. At the very least the one dollar note needed to go thirty years ago.

jbuck Moderator United States 189340 Posts	Posted 07/31/2015 10:13 am Well, you are right though. Inflation is the reason why the cent and nickel are unnecessary today.

OspreyCoins Pillar of the Community United States 932 Posts	Posted 07/31/2015 10:15 am Also why the dollar bill needs to go for good. Report this Post to the Staff

Classic Coins Pillar of the Community United States 940 Posts	Posted 07/31/2015 1:29 pm Quote: Eliminate the cent, nickel and quarter, bring back the 20 cent coin to replace the quarter, and issue a new designed and newly sized half. I cringe thinking about how the US Mint might do a newly-sized half. The Chuck-e Cheese tokens the mint calls dollar coins are an embarrassment to to the USA! Report this Post to the Staff
