How did that Susan B. Anthony dollar work out?

Same way all the other dollar coins worked out. Nobody wants the bloody things. That's why they're attacking the $20. EVERYBODY who uses cash uses Twenties. Try to get anything other than a Twenty from an ATM ...

Well maybe my bank is unique. But I can get a 5 spot from their ATM.

The ATM for my bank around the corner here gives out $50s and $20s, depending on how much you ask for.

It sucks because so few places will take a $50. The McDonalds next door won't, unless it comes out to less than $20 in change.

***Same way all the other dollar coins worked out. ***

My dad used to get paid in REAL SILVER DOLLARS back in 1955 Utah.

Now this nickle clad copper are not worth the weight to carry around.

Never had a $20 turned down over in Cherokee Land Oklahoma.

Today’s $100 will not buy you any more than a $20 bill would forty five years ago.

Fifty years ago is when Johnson took the silver out of REAL MONEY!

Dollar Bills are a waste of money. Their life span is measured in mere months! Then they’re shredded and sent to landfills. They are germ, bacteria, and disease carriers! The coins last for many, many years. They are recyclable. They are naturally anti-bacterial. In all practicality, coins are preferable to single dollar bills. We’d save quite a bit of money if we’d switch to coins. You only need to carry one or two. Get the two dollar bill back into common circulation! We need to stop wasting money! We need to save in every way we can!

I predict a lot of bills will be sent back for destruction because of defacement.
