In addition to the L.A. Metro issuing Susan B Anthony's as change,
lots of Post Office vending machines do too.  I stuck a $20 bill
in one of these vending machines at my local Post Office.  I
just bought two stamps.  My change included 19 SBA dollar coins.
My pockets were bulging with them.  I used some at my local
Taco Bell.  The cashier was initially confused.
I also used one for a dollar tip at the car wash.  The person
I tipped look at me like I only gave him a quarter.
