Jersey, Guernsey, Manx currency, etc, is not 'legal tender' in the UK, but legal tender is a narrow definition that only applies to the payment of debts.

Many millions of notes are in circulation that are not 'legal tender', but they are all a 'legal currency' approved by the UK parliament, backed by Bank of England securities, and are 'worth' exactly the same as their UK equivalents.

Therefore you can simply try to spend them in any shop. If the shop refuses them, try another, or take it to the bank.

The Isle of Man currency (Manx Pound)(IMP) is pegged at par with the British Pound Sterling (GBP) and the Isle of Man decimal coinage, for the most part, resembles the dimensions, composition and history to the equivalent British coins.
