Will the U.S. ever phase out the $1 Bill?
Has anyone heard any news on when or if the $1 bill may be replaced by
the $1 coin? The BEP has told me that the Treasury has stated several times that "the $1 note and $1 coin will co-exist" yet Fred Shecter told me that there should possibly be a $1 bill phase-out in plan, for possibly 2010. So, when do you guys think that the $1 bill would be phased out, if ever? Do you think the $1 bill will ever be phased out? Tom |

Isn't that long enough for an unofficial survey of public preference? The BEP has told me that the Treasury has stated several times that "the $1 note and $1 coin will co-exist" yet Fred Shecter told me that there should possibly be a $1 bill phase-out in plan, for possibly 2010. No comment. So, when do you guys think that the $1 bill would be phased out, if ever? Do you think the $1 bill will ever be phased out? Yes. One day. |

Some areas of the country had a run on dollar bills because of the anticipated removal due to the anticipated circulation of the Ike dollar. That rumor continued through the 70s and finally died after Suzie took a dive in the early 80s. Here we are, 40 years later, and still we have those nasty FBI-RDs. Jerry |

Other than going to a bank or buying something from a vending machine that gives change in $1 coins most people do not get $1 coins in change so as to have a choice of whether to use coins or bills. |

Other than going to a bank or buying something from a vending machine that gives change in $1 coins most people do not get $1 coins in change so as to have a choice of whether to use coins or bills. It's even enough when you consider that most of the pocket change we receive comes from merchants who decide what coins to stock in their register in order to make change. If dollar coins ever were considered more useful and practical by customers and merchants, they would be included in the coin tray by now and maybe even handed out instead of dollar bills. As long as it is given a choice and a voice, the public continues to prefer the dollar bill. |
