Dollar coins

[potthole]

It might as well be a Euro.

This got me to thinking, and when I was in Germany a few years back, all the Euro coins didn't really bug me that much. I had figured that I would hate them, mainly due to not wanting to lug around a pocket full of coins, but they weren't too bad, actually.

If I knew I probably wasn't going to spend a lot of money when going out, I wouldn't take many coins with me, just a few bucks worth (which was only a few coins, not that much more than would be in my pocket normally back here in the states). If I knew I probably would be spending more money, I'd just bypass the coins, because I could just use my larger-value bills.
