SEPTA, unlike NYC, accepts dollar bills on its buses. I don't know
why NYC's fareboxes aren't set up to handle that.
The US could really, really do with $1, $2 and $5 coins for this sort of

They do have one-dollar coins and they and TVMs in New York City
regularly dispense them as change.
The interesting thing is that they have minted a few different series to
ease use since the late 1970s, when the Susan B. Anthony dollar replaced
the Eisenhower dollars, which were almost as big as a five-pound coin.
They were the size silver dollars had been for generations.
I didn't quite understand you.
