Ha! Read today in my local paper, there is talk of creating a $1.00 coin. So cute, no lovely pic's of animal on theirs...just people wonder what they would call it?

I totally remember life before loonies and toonies, do you? Get ready for a heavy purse gals, or should I say pocket book? :lol:

They've been trying to do this for as long as I can remember. It never catches on, because they never take the $1 bill away. They use them together, and so no one switches. What ever happened to the Sacagawea $1 coin?

Oh, and the Susan B. Anthony dollar:

Technically, there already are one dollar coins (yes, plural) and they have been circulating about since 1971. There's the Eisenhower one dollar coin, the Susan B. Anthony one dollar coin and the Sacagawea one dollar coin. What differs from Canada, however, is that a one dollar coin has never successfully replaced the one dollar bill. But that doesn't mean one dollar coins have never existed or that they don't exist now either.

The new one dollar coin program you're reading about is the Presidential Dollar Coin Program. These will be gold-like coins with the images of U.S. presidents on them.
