No, once it is currency, It's property of the Treasury and to only be use as legal tender. Most, if not all coins, are worth / cost more than face value (pennies cost 1 to 1.5 cents in materials).
a mint Mints produce coins, not paper currency. In the U.S. all paper money is produced by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, which is part of the Treasury Department. Until 1988 all paper money was printed at a single plant in Washington, DC. Increasing demand for paper money and continued production of $1 bills overloaded the Washington facility and a second printing plant was built in Fort Worth. Fort Worth bills can be identified by a tiny "FW" next to one of the plate numbers on a bill.
Yes. Oddly-enough, there is NO U.S. Federal law that mandates a person, organization or merchant (which would include a retailer or collection agency) accept coins (rolled or otherwise), as payment for goods and services, even though coins are considered 'legal tender' as stated in the Coinage Act of 1965.How is this possible?Simple. Though it seems strange, the dollars and coins struck and printed by the U.S. Treasury are for the FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM. The Federal Reserve System MUST HONOR US currency and coins...however, not necessarily anyone else. Link to U.S. Treasury FAQ's: http://www.ustreas.gov/education/faq/currency/legal-tender.html#q1 = Yes, I would think so. You are better off sending a money order (keep your receipt) or a certified check.If you pay by mail they can refuse cash payments (doesn't matter if it's coins or bills) but if it is in person they must take the coins, but you would probably have to unwrap them so that they can count them while you stand there----just another one of their stupid power trips.Creditors or collectors can refuse any amount or manner of payment that has not been agreed upon in an original lending contract or collection agreement. This includes personal checks, checks by a third party, methods such as the one cited and so forth.
Assuming you mean "Which coins must you have if you have 30 coins that add to $1.09 c", there are a large variet of possibilities that largely depend of the country the coins come from. This is because different countries have different denominations of coins.
