They're not worth anything, never were but even less through the years with inflation.

If a store wants to sell something for 99 cent, they can either just take 1โ‚ฌ or 95 cent.

Maybe even 5 cent pieces? But that would be a bit radical.

I am a bit annoyed that easy ideas like this are never discussed in politics, or wherever. It would make our lives just a little bit easier, and having them achieves NOTHING.

I haven't seen them a lot lately in Austria...

Austria still totally uses 1/2ct coins. If you are one of the weirdos who still pays in cash, that is.

Why would be one a weirdo if they pay in cash?

[โ€“] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

Just a joke since hardly anyone in Austria actually pays in cash. It's mostly something old people, criminals and politicians do.
