If you want people to use a dollar coin ,you pull and destroy the paper dollar as you issue the coin.

Actually, using the dollar coin instead of paper is cheaper. It lasts longer. This decision fits right in Obama’s policy of waste.

It would also help if they would quit making them the size of a quarter.

It’s probably in the works to make way for a world wide coin.

That’s what Canada did or at least they stopped producing dollar coins in favor of the loonie.

At work (postal service) I get dollar coins as part of change in vending machines in breakroom.
Put $5 bill in for $2.50 tuna sandwich, get change back in
dollar coins and other coins. Later use the dollar coins for such things as coffee (85 cents for large) or soda (20 oz.,
$1.45). Dollar coins being used all the time there. (And
there are change machines that will issue dollar coins)
