I was clearing up some leaves, in my back garden this morning, and I found a £50 note, I think it maybe fake, but I'm not sure.
What should I do?
Hand it to the Police or put it in a Charity box???

Your local Post ofice will be able to tell you if it is real or fake.
If it is fake they will be obliged to keep it.
They may have to inform the police too. :eek:£2 Coins Savings Club 2012 is £4

As you found it in your own back garden, then by rights it's yours surely?
Even if someone has lost it, then presumably it could have blown into your garden from anywhere, so the chances of finding the person are slim to none!
Perhaps take it into a bank or something to ask them to check if it's real or not before you try spending it!Total Debt 13th Sept 2006 (exc student loan): £6240.06 :eek:

If you rub the coloured piece on a plain white paper you'll be able to tell if it's real or fake.
