Actually bills cycle out of circulation and eventually are no longer accepted. They also don't hold up for all that long. They'll look weird compared to commonly passed currency and the receiver may simply not accept them at some point.
I just want to be able to use any currency for any transaction, including gold/silver straight across, no barbaric legal tender laws.
