A [[Bank Check]] is a form of [[money|currency]] that can be created in amounts of up to 1 million [[gold]] coins. Regardless of the amount of gold stored in a check form, the check will weigh 1 [[stone]]. Introduced [[Publish 4|March 8, 2000]], bank checks were instituted to allow players to carry large sums of gold to facilitate player-to-player trading that was more secure.

A character may deposit a bank check into their bank box by dragging the check onto an NPC banker or minter. However, opening the bank box for a direct transfer is recommended.

==Check Creation==
At an [[NPC]] Banker or Minter, say the word Check followed by the amount, up to 1,000,000.
:*If you have enough gold coins in your bank box, the check you requested will appear there and the corresponding amount of coins will be debited.
:*If you do not have enough gold coins in your bank box, you will see the following message:

==Check Redemption==
To cash a check, place it in your bank box and double-click it.

==Notes==
*Bank checks of no value can be made and are not worth purchasing.
*All bank checks are [[blessed]], which means they cannot be looted or stolen.
*Bank checks cannot be used directly to purchase items from NPC or player vendors.
*An exploit allowed for the creation of bank checks in amounts greater than 1 million coins, such checks were deleted <sup>Insert information here</sup>.
