wow... i honestly have to idea. are they trying to bring back the half dollar? because for something that supposedly 1.8 million of were made this year, i sure dont see many of them lol
It's been around for ages. It's rarely seen because they are heavy and not many people wants to carry a few half dollars. $1 bill is a lot lighter but that may change if the USA government copies Canada and stops paper $1 for good.
For that matter, there's still 330,000 $500 bills in circulation, left over before they stopped printing them in 1969. Bet you'd like to find one of THOSE also!
