I just found a check for $12 from a Half.com sale dated 9/13/02, is it still valid?

From a place like that, I would expect it to have an expiration printed on it somewhere. It's likely expired.

That's what I thought too, but I looked all over it and found none.

It's issued by First Union National Bank.

Try cashing it. What's the worst that could happen?
