Two important possibilities are missing from your list:
8. Should the cheque be considered as having been made out to
"heqdesh,"i.e. for a G"dly purpose, for instance, a recipient fund
designated by the Kotel Plaza?
9. Should it be considered tsedaqa, that the payor was intending it to
go to a needy individual or institution, and is the finder entitled to
tsedaqa support (until he cashes the cheque, after which he'll be a
great deal wealthier)?
