"Coins... Finally!"

I was hosting a Canadian CouchSurfer last night, and we went to a restaurant for dinner. He was paying with a card, so I handed him cash for my part of the bill... and naturally, my cash included some Good Ones. His response? "Coins... finally!" After spending five days in the US, he was so glad to have dollar coins again, as is common in Canada. "People here," he lamented, "cling to paper dollars like they're worth something."

Tender: a tenner and 4 Good Ones
Response: Joy!
ACI: -0.3
