I'm pretty sure that "legal tender" only means they're *allowed* to accept
it, not that they're *required* to accept it.  But as the saying goes, I
Am Not A Lawyer, and it's really a question that should be asked of a lawyer.

In any case, I think it's highly unlikely that you'll be able to get out of
paying the bill just because they refused your money, despite what the other
poster said and no matter how appealing the idea may be.
