Trays in most cash registers have four bill slots and four coin slots.
To introduce a dollar coin, one should simultaneously stop stamping out pennies and make their acceptance optional. Have a sign on the shop entrance saying "no pennies" and round to the nearest nickel. Stuff will be $1.95 before tax instead of $1.99 so no loss there.
Since dollar bills will be worn out within a year, make that slot good for $2 or $5 bills... if fivers, then the leftmost slot can be $50s. Now they don't have to stash big bucks under the coin tray.
Cash is great at restaurants for splitting bills. Why waitresses don't do seperate checks. Most people just have $20s, eg, "Yuppie food stamps" and the tip winds up being outrageous. One can blow through $100 in hard earned small bills making change for everyone at the table.
