I dont have answers on legal tender or tax issues heard that a fellow once gave tens of thousands of pennies to satisfy a bill owed the company refused, went to court, where the company's position was upheld the guy had to pay in dollar bills the court said the pennies were not legal tender heard of a nasty court case where taxes were owed on purchased gold coins this is anti-constitutional, but upheld by the current law the guy almost served prison time for tax evasion his business was destroyed the funniest phenomenon I know of involves silver and gold coins showing recent dates a Liberty Silver Dollar is worth $5, according to law a Twenty Dollar Gold Coin is worth $310, according to law ( I might have the twenty wrong, might be fifty, dunno ) so if you sell your house, and have a $200k sale price, demand payment in the form of 4000 silver dollars your tax returns will show you received $4000 in payment declare a tax loss hold your silver coins in an effing vault perfectly legal, and surprising that people dont stick it to the govt probably too scared the insanity of the game is soon to break wide open / jim
