I think they(fivers) should be phased out and a coin introduced.

In that case a five pound and 4 one pound coins would be better than nine pound coins (in change).  ;D

NooooO! Bring back £1 notes i say, i hate having to haul around heavy coins in my wallet, notes don't weigh as much. Hate it when i get £9 in coins and they make my wallet weigh a ton and the size of a brick
