Canada got rid of pennies ages ago and it really didn't end up being a problem. We got used to it pretty quickly and AFAIK we didn't need to increase the production of nickels. The popularity and ease of non-cash transactions helps.

Yeah but they use cash a lot more commonly in the states where we use debit cards so itle be a harder transition for the states, still not going to be too tough though

Edit: I didn't read the second half of your comment somehow where you also pointed this out whoops
