They still spend just fine.
In this instance, it sounds like the customer was wrong.
If you have currency that is noticably marked up or defaced,
it has then lost it’s trading value.
This has nothing to do with Trump per se.
The paper is marked up.
The cashier suggested several options for the customer.
The options were rejected.
The customer was wrong.
No your wrong, you never had a bill with writing or markings on it? Unless it has been totally marked out it still legal tender.
The bill is still valid currency.
You apparently failed to get past the headline.
Good thing you’re not in law enforcement 🤪
The customer was not wrong.
The cop was correct. As the article explains with the US Code definition.
The writing on the bill did not render it unusable.
Now if a kid takes a marker and just writes all over it and colors stuff in in markers or whatever, then i’d say a vaild case of rendering the bill unusable occurred.
Did you lump this particular customer in with the sly actions of dearly departed Saint George of Floyd? Big George was passing along the funny money as the real greenbacks in deceptive manner.
You're incorrect and the customer was correct. Nothing prohibits writing on a bank note, you can't mutilate it with the intent to render it unfit to be reissued.

Bullshit. Currency is marked all the time by retailers, merchants and even banks when they count it.
Bills can even be taped back together if torn and accepted.
The little shit in the restaurant is WRONG.
Nonsense. The cop knew what he was talking about.
No he wasn’t. The bill was usable, as the article explained, and therefore not defaced.
You are incorrect - legal tender must be accepted at all times. Including damaged bills or coin.
If I take a bill torn almost in half, with the complete serial number on one side and a partial serial number on the other, it is legal currency, and a bank must replace it with a complete bill.
If I pay a $100 bill with 10,000 pennies, take it or else I get my goods and you don’t get paid.
A slightly defaced bill - accept it, or there is no charge for the goods or services.
If you can tell what it is then it is legal tender.
These are long standing rules regarding currency.
If you really believe that, I’d be happy to take your bills with writing on them off of your hands. Good grief.
Sorry pal, you’re wrong. Or is it just the DTS you have?
Thirteen negative replies.
Didn’t go the way you thought it would?
.
The law cite was posted. The bill was useable. “ for all debts public and private”.
The deranged woke cashier is was and likely will be an idiot.
We’ve all held and passed marked bill. I’ve even destroyed a few that failed my world view with regards to perverse scripts.
I heard a faggoty lisp when I read your comment. Did you read the the story?
I'm getting out my sharpie right now to write on my bills. I am sure that I will find it very gratifying.
The customer was wrong.

Nonsense. The cashier was a leftist punk and the owner of the restaurant should have fired him on the spot. Now be a nice little leftist yourself and, if you can read, go read the cited statutes.
They still spend just fine.
Nope, unless the denomination or serial numbers are defaced to the point of being unreadable, it’s a good bill. Tear a bill in half and take it to a bank. They will check the serial number. If it is intact they will exchange it.
