See "Limitations" here regarding the proverbial bag of pennies.

But I think with respect to the law on accepting legal tender; if I owe you $100 and try to give you a $100 bill and you refuse; the debt is now over as you refused to accept legal tender. But there is nothing in the laws stating that one must be forced to make change for legal tender.
