Tenor

It's a minor observation, and perhaps not based in fact, but it seems to me the ten-dollar bill is becoming disfavored.  Over and over, when someone makes change for me, I seem to get two fives rather than a ten. (Looking in my wallet now, I see six fives and nary a ten.)

It can happen, you know--a denomination can become disfavored.  When's the last time you saw a two-dollar bill? And that's got Jefferson on it, so you know they thought they had something.

After the recent fuss over who should be on the ten, and the last-minute save for Alexander Hamilton (due to the show Hamilton), it'd be ironic if the bill essentially disappeared.  It's as useful a denomination as we have for everyday commerce.
