I remember when we had paper money with blue emblems on them that at one time could be redeemed for silver. Actual silver certificates. Then later even if you had a roll of them the payout in silver got cancelled and now they aren't worth the paper they are printed on quite possibly.

I know someone who has one.

I’m not old enough (55) to remember this, but I think my grandparents had some. I am old enough to remember $2 bills though.
 
I will still get random $2 bills from kids for their lunch money. Usually it's because they lost a tooth and the tooth fairy thought giving the kid a $2 bill was extra special. Dollar coins too. The kids don't care, they just want the snacks that the money buys
 
I remember in my first job, I was pay weekly by cash in an envelop. Before long, it was pay into a bank account.

Mom and I were stopped by a charity group outside a food store,they asked us for donation, mom took out a handful of coins that probably around $10, they refused to take it as they no longer use cash, they want us to give them through our bank card. Mom say no, just cash and she offered to buy the raffle tickets from them, they also can not accept cash for it. They told us to donate to them online, my mom does not have a computer.

I bought a Mexican hat at charity store for $1, when I gave them $1 coin, they told me they prefer I pay them by bank card. They want to go cashless.
