Line 28: == rare vs. uncommon coins == Not a programming comment ... (just adding my two-bits, er, I mean 8% of that), but I would say that halves are not very rare, just uncommon.   Around these parts (upper ~~midwest~~mid-west of the US), both dollar coins and halves are common.   Now, what's very rare is a twenty-¢ piece, half disme, or a three-¢ piece.   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] 20:17, 24 March 2012 (UTC) ~~Now, what's very rare is a twenty-¢ piece, half disme, or a 3-¢ piece . -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] 20:17, 24 March 2012 (UTC)~~ What's ever rarer than hen's teeth is a <big>½</big>-cent piece --- despite that there were over 7.8 million of those coins minted.   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 22:56, 2 September 2015 (UTC) -----▼ <br> ▲----- <br> Also, the REXX versions support fractional cents.   Support was added to allow specification of a half-cent and quarter-cent as   '''1/2'''   and   '''1/4'''.
