Now, they are seriously considering another coin for our $5.00 bill....Hmmmm wonder what they will call that?
Queen of England. We still have notes for a single pound in Scotland, they are much
better than a coin, lighter to carry and make you look rich when you pull out ten of
them. You could just throw them around Rusty, like confetti and hardly notice the
difference 🙂

I think the idea of coins if the life of them is much longer than the paper.
Just a common sense thing, more economical for the long run.
I have my face on enough stuff, I don't need to be on a coin. 😉
Coins are naff, they fall out your pockets when you get out the car, pull your jeans
down when you have a wad of them, roll down drains, all sorts of mishaps. Of course
someone in your position would hardly notice a few five dollar coins rolling away, i bet
you wouldn't even bend to pick them up! 🙂

They can be a pain the butt, but the government doesn't care if it means they can waste the money in other ways!
