Forum checks (German: Forumscheck) were a form of hard currency in East Germany. By law all East Germans had to convert any Deutsche Marks they possessed into Forum checks at the state bank. A Forum check mark was worth 1 Deutsche Mark. Forum checks, as well as western currencies, were accepted in Intershops as payment for western consumer goods.
