I loved the JFK half-dollars. And the $2 bills. And the Susan B. Anthony dollar coins. (Too bad those didn't take off. They probably should have made them a different size than the quarter.) A artist I know used to go to comic book conventions armed with Susan B's and $2 bills to give out as change.
