Most of us Filipinos today are now ignoring to accept smaller denomination coins such as 1 cent, 5 cents and 10 cents, or using it to pay products and services.

How many times you saw jeepney drivers refused to accept fare in coins with 10 cents? How many times you went to a store and store owners refused to accept your holed coins because they are reportedly not accepted by bigger businesses such as gas stations and supermarkets? And how many times you saw people laughed when they received 1 cent, 5 cents and 10 cents? These are only few scenarios that the smaller denomination coins were ignored and perceived as a kind of joke.
