    Unfortunately not. Just because a coin or banknote is legal tender, doesn't mean anyone is legally obliged to accept it

    Unless you are paying on exit then you are paying for a service and not a debt.

    Legal tender only has a very narrow meaning in relation to debts. Even BoE say forget the idea of legal tender in day to day use.

    Is anyone collecting the old coins, as in the Great One Pound Coin Race? I have managed to get the full set and have a few left over if anyone still needs them?
