It's a fake... to help them identify fakes, and to show that they will check for fakes |

Its usually a fake so they can identify them and also so the customer knows that they check. |

The note that they have behind the bar is probably a fake, there are more 20 pound fakes notes than any other kind of pound notes that are fakes, and all fakes note have the same number on them, so when some one gives him a 20 pound note he would check the number with the one he has behind the bar. |

They do it to show they are aware of counterfeit currency, as a reference to staff to help them check and as a warning to customers. I've worked in British pubs all my life and I've never heard of anyone leaving valid currency out on show as some kind of "tradition". |

It's so that they can tell if someone is giving a fake one because of the size or the stuff on it. |

Standing from that distance, you would not be able to tell the difference, so it sounds sortof stupid that they'd do that to suggest counterfiet checks. Even then, what does the bar care? I've never seen a bar check a bill for legitimacy.
It's the first buck made by someone, for something. |

It is the first note made by that business usually. We used to own a pub and we had the same thing, we even had the people that were there at the time sign it before framing. |

Most business will display the first currency that they received. It's a tradition. |
