    They’re common in vending machines, libraries, ticket machines for bus/train, etc. as change because they’re easier to distribute than single dollar bills by a machine

      I’m starting to feel like an ass for not knowing this.

        You’re fine - I grew up in a rural state, and I thought they were super rare until I lived in a city where the public transit system gave them as change.
