(I assume this is literally a "box" not a "bag" of coins.) https://catalog.usmint.gov/webapp/wc...egory_rn=16238 A high proportion of the production of these are used in Ecuador and other countries which have "dollarized" the economy, but the population prefers coins to notes. |

This was maybe a valid concern 10-15 YEARS ago, however since that time all sorts of measures have been taken and bits added to different denominations to make such a thing impossible.

Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for clearing that up. When I first looked at this yesterday, I thought it said "available" but when I ordered today it said "backordered."
|
In for 2 boxes, but we'll see if it lasts...
|
Thanks! Backordered so it will ship 6/28
|
Is it two boxes per customer/billing address or two boxes per credit card/shipping address?
|
I can't believe that for a few minutes I actually considered doing this ....:eek:

I have to ask... how often do people see $1 coins in the U.S? Will there ever be a day when the $1 note is phased out?
That being said, you'll get odd looks when you try to use them, especially from teeny-boppers pressing the buttons at fast-food cash registers. |

Depends on where you are. I see lots of $1 coins in cities with transit vending machines. When I lived in Philly I would get Susan B. Anthony's in change when I bought, say $5 worth of tokens with a $10 bill. I think most stamp vending machines in post offices issue change in $1 bills.
fyi, don't be thrown by the displayed "shipping charge" at the first steps of your order, that charge zeros out by the time you complete the purchase. |

Rarely, though I really don't expect that will change unless they stop circulating the $1 bill, which gets talked about, but not acted upon.
I'm all for it.
