Coins and Bills

What is the going rate for the Tooth Fairy these days?
Ask MeFi answers.

I got my first Presidential (Madison) coin in change today, which is odd because they've been out for a year now, right? It came from a stamp vending machine that also gave me a charred nickel. We are currently dissolving the 'char' with Mountain Dew in a coworker's cube overnight. Yes, sometimes our work is not stimulating enough and we have to entertain ourselves.

Anyway, the Ask MeFi question is rather appropriate since most of them stress that you should use coins and not bills.

Speaking of coins vs. bills, I think it's high time we forced the switch to dollar coins by lowering the number of bills printed each year.
