erm assuming the money exists in only one form (gold coins, 100 dollar bills) and one form only, wouldnt it then be possible to simply weigh the bags and pick the heaviest?

The puzzle clearly states that the money is in the form of a check.

Well... that's what I read into it, and I figure if you can read in the scale, I can read in the cheque.
