    I like the Sacagawea and “Innovation” dollar coins. The problem with 'em, though, is people horde and collect them so they’re not as available as the regular paper bills even though they are currently still in production. They come across so rarely, I also tend to think “oooh I should hold onto this!” Whenever I get one back as change.

    The only downside to using them I’ve run into is having to show the clerk it’s a dollar and not a quarter.

      Wait, can’t yall just… go to the bank? I walked into a local bank a year or so ago and asked if I could exchange for them, they asked how many and just exchanged them like anything else.

      I’m sure if I wanted thousands that would be a problem, but I’d be surprised if they didn’t have at least a handful.
