Default Re: New $1 coin- would the changes make YOU use them?

[ QUOTE ]
the metro north ticket vending machines give change in sacagaweas. (i have no idea how to spell her name) I rarely pay in cash for my train tickets, but when i do I hate the dollar coins. they are cumbersome and heavy in my pocket if I get more than two or three.

The BART machines give change in quarters. You think getting 5 dollar coins is annoying? Wait until you get 20 quarters. Also, dollar coins are easier to use in vending machines thn dollar bills. You don't like your dollar coins? Just use them the next time you need a Metro North ticket.
