      It would make counterfeiting harder, for one. It would also replace the quarter for coin op devices which are almost entirely impractical at this point.

          Did you respond to the wrong post?

          I said I use coin op shit. It takes way too many quarters to use that shit. I handle coins all the time but I want to handle LESS COINS. I still LIKE coins but the denominations below quarters AREN’T useful and paying 3 dollars in quarters is insane.

          Cash machines jam all the time. This is why most pay machines now are credit card - I DO NOT LIKE PAYING WITH CREDIT CARDS. I do not want that. The current coin situation in the US is dumb.

          The half penny was eliminated when it was worth more than a dime in todays money.
