Toned Sacagawea

NBSQLGeek

I have a end roll golden dollar nicely toned and some other dollars that have been in the environment. Does anyone else have the feeling like these just like video game toeken from places like chucky cheeses?

US Mint spent to much money for producing game elaberate game tokens.

I ATed a Sac once .It turned magenta.Silly.I spent it.
Those dam things never did nor will the ever will cirulate...in the continintal US anyway.
They,re a huge success though in....Ecudor I think it was.The people love it as they think
is was so nice of us (USA) to honor one or their people on our coins.
Apparently it beats having to crinkle up your bills,(thats what everyone does to help prevent losing them),
and eventually wearing your money out.Paper bill wont last long due to the crunching up of the bill practice.
It maybe the only place on earth that the Sac really works.Maybe we should start a `crumple your one dollar bills`campaign and get the Sac going here.

They end up pretty ugly after being touched a few times. -cr

cam,

There are a couple of countries that use the Sac. Ecuador is one and I can't think of the other one at the moment. Apparently they like the Sacs over the paper dollar because the Sacs last much longer and they don't have to bother as much with constantly shipping worn out bills back to the U.S. Too bad the Sacs don't circulate here more. They lose that initial toning and turn a nice, even tannish brown.
