Talk:Obsolete denominations of United States currency

Criteria for inclusion
Do not archive this thread An obsolete denomination of currency is a denomination that meets all of the requirements below:


 * Circulated, the denomination must have been made with the intention of circulation and must have been circulated by the public or a government.
 * Discontinued, the denomination must not be made for circulation anymore. It may, however, be made for other purposes such as for collectors items or for investors.
 * No longer circulated, the denomination must have been largely removed from circulation by either a government or the public.

What it not an obsolete denomination of currency

 * A commemorative coin that is no longer produced (example: Panama-Pacific half union)
 * A coin or banknote that was not meant for circulation but circulated anyway (example: 1848 "CAL" Liberty Head quarter eagle)
 * A bullion coin that is no longer produced
 * A coin or banknote that was discontinued for circulation but still circulates (example: Susan B. Anthony dollar)


 * If you are not sure if a denomination should be included in this article, feel free to ask. - ZLEA  T \ C 00:06, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

Fractional paper currency
Someone needs to add fractional paper currency. Maybe I'll do it. Harksaw (talk) 15:38, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Coins
We need to add a spot for the 4 dollar Stella. I might do this in a few hours Thesharkjonas (talk) 23:27, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I don't think I'd classify them as "obsolete", since they were struck as patterns and were never put into circulation. I think a denomination has to have entered circulation for at least a little while to be "obsolete". In fact, I wouldn't include the two-cent billon or three-cent bronze coins on the list for the same reason. Almostfm (talk) 00:33, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
