[quote:withoutatrace:MV8xNzE4MDcxXzg0MkJDNDA=] I decided I would rather spend the rolls of Dollar coins I was collecting rather than save them. I gave them to my teen daughter for gas money. Today, my daughter took in a $25 roll of Presidential Dollar coins today to pay for her gas at a station here in Oklahoma. The attendant said, "Oh, I don't think we accept these." Then asked her manager and the manager refused to accept the dollar coins as payment for gasoline. They even told her that she could take them to the bank and get them exchanged into something else...that the bank was right up the street. This means they understand it is real money. This is completely rediculous bullshit. It is US currency! Does this mean they wouldn't accept a Susan B. Anthony dollar coin or the larger half dollars? I am so furious. What is wrong with people?
