They cost more to make than they're worth. And while it would take about year to adapt to it, get rid of the one dollar bill, too. I read someplace the average dollar bill is in circulation for about 6 months before its worn out. A coin, OTOH, can last for years.
Canada gets along just fine with Loonies and Toonies. And Euros come in the same flavors. Now that I'm used to it I actually prefer it. It does take getting used to but it works fine. There is really no reasonable or logical reason for pennies or dollar bills.
But I fear we'll have both in this country for another coupla decades. sigh.
