What can I say. In the US you just can't write a check for $10.005 and
expect it to clear as written. Most likely it would be taken as $10.

John,
Wake up and smell the roses. Nobody except you has suggested that you
can make a transaction for a fraction of a cent. What everybody else
agrees on is that even with no pennies in circulation, you can still
write a check or make a credit/debit card transaction for an integer
number of cents which is not a multiple of 5 cents.
