No, I don't use coins anymore because in the modern day it is getting very common to use cards and digital payment methods, so I don't like to use cash or coins nowadays.

Is it convenient to use coins?
Candidate
No, in my opinion it is not very convenient to use coins. Instead, I would prefer to use digital payment methods or a plastic card to pay for my payments.
Examiner
Have you collected coins when you were a kid?
Candidate
No, not really. I wasn't very fond of coins in general, but also on the other hand, I was not a very good collector of things. I never liked to collect things and so I didn't have any collection of coins when I was a child.
Examiner
Do you carry coins when you go out?
Candidate
Well, not very often. I don't really carry any coins or cash with me whenever I go out, but I like to carry my cards and I like to pay for my shopping through the digital payment methods like Google Pay or Phone Pay.

Grammar
× I don't like to use cash or coins nowadays.
✓ I don't like using cash or coins nowadays.
After verbs like 'like', the gerund form (-ing) is generally preferred over the infinitive 'to use'. Using 'like using' sounds more natural and grammatically correct in this context.
× I never liked to collect things and so I didn't have any collection of coins when I was a child.
✓ I never liked collecting things and so I didn't have any collection of coins when I was a child.
Similar to the previous correction, after 'liked', the gerund form 'collecting' is preferred over the infinitive 'to collect' for natural and correct usage.
