Re: coins as legal tender...
	The last I heard, if you try to pay with more than one roll of
coins, the recipient doesn't have to take them.  That works out to
$0.50 of pennies, $2 in nickels, $5 in dimes, $20 in quarters.
I heard that the Anthony dollars are legal tender in any amount, so
if you want to pay your tax bill in them, you might have a case.

Re: $100 bills with no photo ID...
	Does the store HAVE to sell you goods?  Unless the store is
legally obligated to accept trade from anyone who walks in, I don't
see why they should have to take $100 bills if they don't want to.
