Sec. 49.4254-2  Payment for toll telephone service or telegraph service 
in coin-operated telephones.

    Where the tax on a toll telephone or radio telephone message or 
conversation, or a telegraph, cable, or radio dispatch or message is 
paid by inserting coins in a coin-operated telephone, the tax shall be 
computed to the nearest multiple of 5 cents, and where the tax is midway 
between multiples of 5 cents, the next highest multiple shall apply. In 
other words, one-half or a greater fraction of 5 cents shall be treated 
as 5 cents and a smaller fraction shall be ignored.
