Noun: (slang) £20,000.

If it is real, is it capitalized? This spelling? Etymology? Context? DCDuring TALK 14:48, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Also slang where? UK? Ireland? US? I've never heard of it but of course it might be UK, just not my part of the UK. Mglovesfun (talk) 19:07, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
UK - invented but does not seem to have caught on. You need to Google for Jeffrey Archer £2000 in order to understand it. (I would delete it) SemperBlotto (talk) 21:22, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
I see. So, it should be "£2,000". It mimics US Benjamin "$100", etc. We could give it its 30 days here in case someone has some idea of how to find a pocket of attestable usage. DCDuring TALK 23:44, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
