I do not agree. I believe that the Sac solves the identification problems the Susan B had--color, edge texture, and size are all usefully different from quarters. Approximately as much so as dimes from pennies, in fact, and no one complains they can't tell those two apart. :)
I see no reason the Sac cannot become as widely used here as the Loonie in Canada. Exactly the same size, nearly the same color and heft. Main difference is the corners on the Loonie. And frankly, the larger dollar coins (mine are from the 1970s) are *heavy*! I would not want more than one or possibly two in my pocket, while 4-5 Sacs would not be a problem.
