My ideal cashier till demonation list

kiyote

If I were in charge, and it’s probably a good thing I’m not, the cashier till would look like this:

Coins:
5c
25c
$1.00
$3.00

Bills:
$2.00
$5.00
$10.00
$25.00

No more 50s or 100s. All larger transactions would be tracked through cards or online purchases. Most cashiers won’t take them anyway so I don’t think it would affect too much. getting rid of the penny is pretty obvious. The three dollar coin would fit nicely between the two and the five dollar bills.

The half dollar and cent could return in collector only sets like mint or proof sets.. pretty much what is happening with the half dollar now.

You may want to change "cashier" to "cash register". Also, you may want to change "25.00" to "$20.00". Also, hardly anyone uses $2.00 bills. Or, did you mean $1.00?

Change will undoubtedly come. However, knowing bureaucracy, it may look nothing like reason or logic had anything to do with it. Cheers, RickO
