"Is the dime rejected because it has been taken out of circulation? Recently, when a woman in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province was rejecting the ** because of the use of dime coins when she was spending in a supermarket, it sparked heated discussions among netizens. In this regard, the People's Bank of China conducted a verification and confirmed the fact that some coins have indeed been withdrawn from the market. When the woman replaced it with a new version of the dime that was still in circulation, the supermarket successfully completed the collection. This incident has once again aroused public concern about the renewal of the renminbi.
According to the reporter's combing, the first set and the first set of renminbi that are no longer in circulation, as well as the first set of renminbi in other denominations except for the hard 1 cent, 2 cent, and 5 cents that are still in circulation, have all withdrawn from the market. In the first set of renminbi, except for the paper 1 jiao and paper 5 jiao, the rest of the denominations have also been suspended.

The Law of the People's Bank of China clearly stipulates that public and private debts within the territory of the People's Republic of China shall be paid in renminbi, and no unit or individual may refuse to accept them. Therefore, the refusal to accept cash not only violates the rights and interests of consumers, but also damages the legal tender status of the renminbi.
Faced with such a situation, consumers should take active action and resolutely say "no" to the illegal act of refusing to accept cash. When encountering the rejection of RMB cash payments, the public should retain relevant evidence, report to the local branch of the People's Bank of China, or call the financial consumer rights protection ** "12363", according to ***
