To sign a check on the back what does mean?

It is called counter-signing or endorsement. It is usually done in front of the teller in a bank branch to validate the authenticity of the customer who is using the check as a safety precaution to avoid malicious practices. By signing the check on the back you agree that you are the rightful user of the check and are not performing any illegal activity

Would 'your signing' in a sentence be grammatically correct?

This would usually be correct, as in, "Several deaf people in the audience praised your signing during the lecture", or "Your signing a check is required for a bank where you have a checking account to honor the check when presented." "Signing" in these sentences is a special verb form called a "gerund", which functions in sentences as a noun and therefore can properly be modified with a possessive adjective such as "your". In another kind of sentence, however, "you" would be preferred to "your", for example, "You, signing that check, were a picture of extreme reluctance."


What is signing blank?

Signing blank probably refers to a "blank endorsement." A blank endorsement is when you have a check payable to you and you sign your name on the back of the check without any other direction, such as "pay to the order of" or "for deposit only." When a check only has your endorsement, it is still a negotiable item, and therefore, someone else could then sign the check under your signature and deposit or cash the check.

Endorsement of a check means signing on the back of the check before cashing it. It is required because the bank would require proof over the fact that only the concerned party on whose name the check was issued is the person who is cashing the check. Your signature would be used to validate and confirm the same.
