I'd much rather have 10 one-dollar bills 'cluttering' my pocket that 10 coins. The weight is quite different.

The weight will be heavy. England has a coin similar to the value of our dollar and it’s thicker and heavier than their other coins and a pain to carry that weight. I have family in England and have carried these heavy coins in my numerous trips there, and hated them.

I am not for these $1 coins. How much is it going to cost the govn. to transport these coins as opposed to transporting very light $1 bills?
