Finding out that the fiver in your wallet is £noteworth£worth thousands of pounds is a dream-come-true for some -- but not everyone.
A Northern Irish woman who discovered a rare £5 note worth £50,000 ($62,317) has given the note to charity because she says she has no use for the money.

The woman who discovered the note contacted the gallery founded by Graham Short -- the artist who engraved the notes -- stating her wish to donate the note to charity.
"£5 note enclosed, I don't need it at my time of life. Please use it to help young people," reads the letter sent to the gallery by the donor, who prefers to remain anonymous.
