Reply #9: Does the $1 coin have poor circulation because it's unpopular, [View All]

[Mithras61]

or because it is so unavailable? I have seen so few in open circulation over the years that I had almost forgotten they exist!


Not really, though, because I try to collect them, so I ask for them at the bank and sometimes can even get them. I think that if they were in open circulation people might actually use them.

I also think it would help if the darn things were a different size than quarters, so vending machines could distinguish them from quarters...
