Dollar coins haven’t been popular in the US for a long time. Same with fifty cent pieces. If you ask for a roll of dollar coins you’ll get a bunch of silver colored ones in with the gold ones. The last time I did it it took a couple of trips, but my buddy really liked it. He’s into fantasy.
Do American banks all have gold dollars in store, or is this something that has to be “booked” in advance?

I remember 50 cents was pretty popular in the early to mid 00s. But beyond that I don’t think I’ve ever seen one. Plenty of quarters and dollar notes, but nothing in between.

In my area I’ve noticed that some stores are starting to charge more for using a credit card. I predict that cash is going to make a comeback.

Some banks have them, some don’t. It depends on what’s in stock that day. Tried to ask for a stack of US$2 bills once and they told me I’d need to place an order for US$10,000 in order to get them in because they don’t keep them stocked.

Just go to an atm near a strip club.

We used to get Jeffersons back (with some Sacajaweas or suzyBs) from the p.a.t.h train into NYC at the turnstyles as change back from a Lincoln.
You cannot spend most of that anywhere and I still have some stashed in a box so many years later.
And it was fun naming the money, thank you for asking.
