The US is terrible. In order from smallest to largest:

dime - 10 cents
penny - 1 cent
nickel - 5 cents
quarter - 25 cents
dollar - 100 cents
50 cent piece - 50 cents

The penny, nickel, and dime are virtually useless too since they can't buy much, and the 50 cent piece is incredibly rare.

All I want is for sales tax to be included in the sticker price. Retailers like to make things near round numbers, so I would hopefully be able to actually use cash without getting a ton of change.
