JUST IN: $1 coins may be forced on us if the government has its way!!!!
That crumpled wad of dollar bills in your coat pocket could become a collectors' item if the Government Accountability Office gets its way. The GAO, a nonpartisan, investigative arm of Congress, has a hearing today to attempt to get the U.S. Mint to abandon paper dollar bills and replace them with $1 coins.

The US Treasury mints coins.
The Federal Reserve prints currency.

If the US Mint coined and printed all of our currency, we would not be arguing over the "Fiscal Cliff" as it were.

If it costs less to mint coins than print bills, then it's a good idea. Don't we want to save money?

Well, then, cash them in for a $5 bill! It's really more convenient to have coins than cash for small purchases anyway. It's always convenient in London to pull out a pound or two pound coin instead of having to pull out the wallet and rifle for bills.

Coins last longer and save money. What's not to like? I mean, do you carry 20 one-dollar bills in your wallet?

I don't really think so. How many $1 bills are there out there? A billion or two? Doesn't make much of a difference in the overall scheme of things.

it's no different than the European Euro, the old German Deutsche Mark or French Franc or British Pound (all coins). American is always behind. We already have a 1$ coin so wtf ditch the worthless paper bill. at least i can take a coin to the scrap yard and cash it in when the us dollar tanks. Kinda like when copper pennies and nickles were worth more as scrap metal.

From what I understand, only Congress can coin money, all our coins do not say, "Federal Reserve Note". Maybe we can dump the fed by coining our own money. I good with it.

That's exactly what I am talking about, interest free coins. If there is the proper amount of metal, it will be worth more than paper.

That's a good point, so why are people stealing air conditioners for the copper, even copper is worth more than printed money. The earth can only come up with so much metal, it has to rise is value.
