Taxes may be paid in any acceptable medium of exchange. State warrants shall be received in payment of state taxes. Jury certificates of the county shall be received in payment of county taxes. Past due bonds or coupons of any county, city, township, drainage district, levee district or school district shall be received in payment of any tax levied for the payment of bonds or coupons of the same issue, but not in payment of any tax levied for any other purpose. Any warrant, issued by any county or city, when presented by the legal holder thereof, shall be received in payment of any tax, license, assessment, fine, penalty or forfeiture existing against the holder and accruing to the county or city issuing the warrant; but no such warrant shall be received in payment of any tax unless it was issued during the year for which the tax was levied, or there is an excess of revenue for the year in which the warrant was issued over and above the expenses of the county or city for that year.
