      Yeah, but Article 1 Section 10 doesn't let you guys coin money.

            I haven't even seen those coins before.

            I really wish they would stop making all these dumb quarters and stick to minting the regular ones. It was interesting when they first came out, but now it's just annoying when the coins aren't accepted by machines.

                I wouldnt say afraid, just more annoyed when they are given to us in change cause the banks cant get their **** together. I hardly think im gonna waste my time to go and turn in the 50 canadain coins I get in one month, Considering the exchange rate id prolly be paying the bank money

                  Some of the designs don't reinforce the concept that this is our true legal currency. I think we have one where a kid drew a stick figure and it made the cut.

                    They couldn't keep the red colour on the original issue of these quarters. I don't know if that has been remedied or not.

                      Your shot at the Canadian follar is a bit out of date. When it traded between 60-70 cents, the exchange stung but NOW?? Today I see our dollar at over 90 cents ??!! Wow I didn't know it had gotten THAT high.

                        Oh and just put your occasional Canadian coin in with you US ones and just pass them on. ITs 25 cents so not worth a lot anyway

                              saw the original reports.

                              seemed really really odd...

                              glad to know its a dumb mistake.
