Default $1 $2 $200 $500 And $1,000 FRNs

I just thought I would post a message here saying that I may be sending a
letter to congress on redesigning the $1 and $2 FRNs, issuing a new $200 FRN,
and reissuing the $500 FRN, and possibly the $1,000 FRN. I didn't mention the
Balto idea in the letter for those of you who make remarks about it. I know the
$1 and $2 FRNs should be scrapped, but until then, I would like to see new $1
and $2 FRNs that match the NexGen designs of the higher denomination.

Throw in a paragraph calling for the elimination of the cent, and for making a
$1, $2, and $2.50 coin, wood ja?

Hey Coin Saver, no offense meant toward anyone but, what is with people and
wanting a $2.50 coin? That denomination seems too odd to me, athough for some
reason, I wouldn't mind a $25 or $250 bill. I know there were $2.50 coins
before, but I just don't like the ammount having change with it. But it
wouldn't be to bad if we could get the half circulating again. (-:

what is with people and wanting a $2.50 coin?


what is with people wanting a 25¢ coin? look at a money comparitive:
COIN NOTE
1¢ $1
- $2
5¢ $5
10¢ $10
- $20
25¢ -
50¢ $50
- -
$1 $100
$5 -
$10 -
$25 -
$50 -

See the gaps? We need to either eliminate the $2 or make a 2¢ coin; eliminate
the $20 or make a 20¢ coin; eliminate the 25¢ or make a $25 Note; and we need a
$2.50 coin / $250 Note combination, and we need a 75¢ coin / $7.50 Note
combination, and a $500 Note, $1,000 Note, $2500 Note, and a $5,000 Note, or
eliminate our gold & platinum coins.

That, or just leave it as it is.

If we can't even shake the public of using pennies or dollar bills
because of _good_ reasons, the anal-retentive among us will never be
able to succeed in proposing a 2- or 20-cent coin, or $25 bill of
questionable value other than the columns "don't line up right".

Actually, I sort of like the idea of a $25 bill. Can't say why; maybe
it's the four-quarters-to-a-dollar idea carried over to bills.
