  • TYT. Your wrong, it's a horrible call. These coins are interest free money, that fat cat Fed Reserve does not like. That's why banks are ordered to decirculate these coins when they receive them. Check out Money Masters by Bill Still.

  • TYT, you're so ignorant some times. The top-rated comments are absolutely correct. The privately-owned 'Federal' Reserve is stealing from the people via the government. The establishment of the Fed in 1913 and the final abolition of the gold standard in 1971 were two of the greatest tragedies in US history.

  • In britain we don't use 1 pound notes, we use coins. The lowest note you an get is a fiver. America is weird.

  • @captainspirou read your comment wrong sorry

  • @Bitthebeast what if you have 1000 dollars and want to buy something dumb a shit load o quarters on the cashiers desk and have them count it?

  • @Bitthebeast hmmm ditched the penny are you that stupid that means they would have to completely change the whole price system what if you get 11.22 in change start making 2 3 4 6 7 8 9 coins that will fix the problem surely make triple the coins just to fix that ONE problem what if you get 1 dollar in change give you change in which NO ONE WANTS

  • For anybody that thinks that our government is too powerful should pay attention to this. Our government is so weak and stupid that they can't change our currency. This has little to do with public popularity. Every time I go to the store I always got change in bills instead of $1 coins. To just about everybody, money is money. They didn't care if it was coins or bills. All they had to do was take bills out of circulation and replace them with coins. Idiots.

  • @stripe64 Nope. I've never given a shit about what "they" say. I'm not calling you gay, i'm calling you a bundle of kindling. Because I hope you die in a fire. Fact.

  • @jschultzVII Nice retort homophobe. You know what they say about people who are homophobic, right?
