Yes, I still use coins. They're very handy for vending machines, parking meters, highway tolls, stupid magic tricks, decision making, purchasing one taco at taco bell, carnival food, making wishes, receiving change, and so on. I don't think coins will go away as long as paper currency remains, unless we start printing bills worth less than a whole dollar, or we become so rich that we don't concern ourselves with values less than one dollar.
