    Legal tender usually has a very narrow meaning.

    In normal transactions, either party are free to offer to conclude the deal in any form of currency they wish. Even if that currency is brass buttons. They also have no obligation to accept "legal tender".
    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means - Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride

    Yes, my understanding was that legal tender was the payment methods that could not be refused when paying a court ordered debt.
