OK, I worked very late last night, so my brain is still frazzled... but this question doesn't make much sense to me. Are you saying it's illegal to pay for my copy of the Daily Sport using only one penny coins? Or am I misreading this (quite possible considering my current state).

You can offer to pay any amount with copper coins, the shopkeeper doesn't have to accept the payment if it is over 20p though. Most places won't bother particularly and technically a shopkeeper can decline your custom for any reason they choose (your aftershave may be obnoxious as an example).
 
Wow, didn't know that.

Well, I knew that a retailer isn't obliged to sell you something for whatever reason they like.... invitation to treat and all that malarkey. Didn't know that there was a limit to the amount of coppers you can use though. Learn something new every day.
