<p>[QUOTE=&quot;phankins11, post: 2079192, member: 70703&quot;]So I was reading this month&#039;s Numistmatist and found this little nugget. As far as the cents and half cents not having legal tender status, I&#039;m trying to figure out if this is one of those coin things I should have known already. What were they used for, if not legal tender? Did this just mean you couldn&#039;t settle up a debt at the bank or local store with a sack full of copper coins, but they were acceptable for small exchanges?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]386481[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
