Do away with the penny, the nickel and the dime, the half dollar and dollar coins leaving the quarter as the only coin. If anything is worth less than a quarter, buy two or more at a time. I hate having filthy dirty coins in my pocket. The bills are filthy enough but at least they're in my wallet. Side: Yes

The average dollar bill cost about 5.4 cents to print, and only last a few years before it needs to be shredded up, and reprinted. While say if were to make the coin quarter sized, it would cost roughly 9 cents to produce, but last up to 50 years in circulation. Notice how you find coins from the 1960's all the time, but it's rare you'll find a dollar will a series year before 2006. Side: Yes
