All Legal money is legal tender regardless of when it was minted or issued. Regardless of what you may pay for it it is Legal Tender for the denomination/value on the security instrument.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I suggest that you should go to the bookstore that does not mean that I am insulting you. Simply put, for you to get a better understanding of what you are saying, perhaps a visit to the venues would afford you better recourse.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1875 S 20 cent piece I once had in my collection (PCGS MS-63 monster toned) was worth exactly 20 cents because it was a legal tender coin in that amount. Despite the fact that a well known collector purchased it from me for 1800.00 is beside the point!</p><p>To this day, there are pieces of fractional currency that are still monetized within our system and can be traded for commerce for 3 cent, 5 cents, 10 cents, 15 cents 25 cents and 50 cents. Theses are often offered in high grade version for collectors just as coins are for hundreds if not thousands of dollars! They are still only worth face value in commerce!</p><p>&nbsp;Here is an image of a 50 cent fractional from 1875....still worth 50 cents legal tender for all debits except customs!</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not trying to insult you, just point out that you have a misunderstanding of some facts, (or so it appears) I actually enjoy helping people.........</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Regards,</p><p><br /></p><p>RickieB[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
