A cheque is not considered legal tender; rather, it is a payment instrument that instructs a bank to transfer money from the payer's account to the payee. Legal tender refers to money that must be accepted if offered in payment of a debt, such as coins and banknotes issued by a government. While cheques are widely accepted for transactions, they do not have the same status as legal tender. Acceptance of a cheque is typically subject to the agreement of the parties involved.

Assuming you mean a 'cancelled' cheque... Once a cheque has been filled out - it is 'legal tender' in that it can be legally used to pay for something bought (or provide cash). Drawing two widely-spaced parallel lines with the word CANCELLED written between them, voids the cheque, and it cannot be used.
