The only problem with the $1 bill is that inflation has eroded its value.

I'm not crazy about the PC origins of the Sacagawea dollar coin, but I do have to admit that it is aestheticly attractive, functional and convenient. (Sure beats that wretched Susan B. Anthony dollar they screwed up.)

Time to retire the paper dollar and move to a coin.

Might as well discontinue pennies while we're at it.
They've become nothing but a nuisance.

How could a coin possibly be any more efficient than paper money?

Agree with you on the dollar coin and elimination of the penny. A dollar bill must be destroyed and replaced every 18 months (on average). A dollar coin will last 30 years or more.

I use the Sacagawea coin (when I can get them) but have some problems with it. They tarnish too easily. Also, Sacagawea is a poor choice (but much better than the scowling Susan B. Anthony). Why couldn't they put Lady Liberty on the dollar coin like the examples below? Now that would be a coin that would represent the dollar in a classier manner.

I agree with Willie,

Everyone please send me your dollar bills, (and pennies,)
and I promise to send you something worth less.

You'll be getting serviced while doing your country a service.

Bless me, Father, for I agree with everything Willie Green just said. And put your hands back in your own pocket....
