I’d say the coins are more “valuable” than bills because they’re more durable. Bills can tear easily unless you got the fancy plastic bills. Whereas coins can be thrown around and shoved up someone’s ass and back out and it’ll still keep its shape. Bills can also be counterfeited relatively easy whereas coins require metals
But then again, coins are heavier which means it’ll take more effort and sturdier storage to store or haul around whereas bills are barely noticeable. No one wants to count thousands of pennies, but $1 coins probably won’t be a huge problem. Plus coins can easily be lost or mistaken for another coin.
So basically, the lesson is that both are good depending on what you desire and how you use them. :think-about-it:
Lmao this reminds me of when I was a kid and fell into the "what weighs more, a pound of cotton or a pound of lead" trap and then spent five minutes arguing that £1 of lead weighs more than £1 of cotton, even though no one involved was british

Coins will also retain the value of the metals used to mint them after the currency becomes worthless due to societal collapse or something.
IMHO:
Worth considerably more than nominal value: $1 bills, Quarters (if you have any coin-op machines in your life, else slightly less than nominal value)
Worth slightly more than nominal value: $5, $10, $20 bills (also, all increasingly valuable as number of $1 bills increases)
Worth slightly less than nominal value: Half-dollars, Dollar coins, $2 bills (unless you're sentimental about unusual currency)
Worth considerably less than nominal value: $50, $100 bills
Worthless: Pennies, Nickels, Dimes
