Your last two points is why we have the $2 bill. If the $1 bill went away, that spot in cash registers would & should be used for $2 bills. THEN you'd never have to receive more than a single $1 coin in change.

It's three things actually in my mind.

1) US Government refusal to stop printing the $1 bill. Certainly this affects and new dollar coin contracts given. 2) The US Government's lack of desire to mint a $2 coin in addition. People don't "like" dollar coins because when they pay with a $5, they don't want 4 coins back....2 coins back is better...there's your $4.

and lastly....
3) it's hard to put a dollar coin in a g-string. The stripper lobby? :) haha......
