[QUOTE="Numismat, post: 2150129, member: 15019"]Legally yes, but practically? Ever hear of anyone trying to spend an NCLT coin or depositing it at the bank? I don't mean having it accepted for precious metal value or just out of curiosity, I mean as a legit monetary unit at face value. There was a discussion I remember from a while ago about Marshall Islands $5 and $10 commems, which were made of common metals. Someone had a small hoard that they wanted to spend or deposit in the Marshall Islands... and quickly found out that no bank will take them unless they must to please a high $$$ investor or someone with inside connection. Local businesses would not take them either. Heck, a feeder finger struck by dies is legally money :) So, in reality "can be spent as money" is not a practical option for those that wish to do so.
