I don't think anyone ever gets excited about finding anything less than a quarter. Hell, even today I don't know if quarters are worthwhile. We should definitely get rid of everything besides quarters. I don't think any machines even take anything other than quarters. Maybe some drink machines do, but that's it. Like, two dimes and a nickel is objectively less useful than a quarter. And not just because of the mild inconvenience of carrying two additional coins lol.
I think there are enough places that use quarters that we shouldn't get rid of them.
Quarters are useful if only to feed into pinball machines.
