192. Interesting
Trying to think how that standard applies, and the logical extensions.

I can pay my water and electric bills in pennies, but probably not my mobile bill as that's prepaid. And my internet bill would depend on which day, as they send it out before the service period starts, but the due date is after the service period starts.

Or if I walk into one of those trinket stores with a "you break it, you bought it" sign and smash the three ugliest things on the floor, they would have to accept pennies

So possibly if she had just opened all the containers and licked the contents, this gal could be considered to owe the store for the contents, and then could pay in coin unless they still refused to let her purchase the items?
