1 definition by Aeneas Edward

Common slang for a ten pound note (english sterling). The term 'Darwin' denotes the value of the note because of the use of Charles Darwin's face on the reverse of the bank note.

Other amounts in note form are characterised by the face used on the reverse of the note, e.g. a 'Smith', used instead of saying 'twenty pounds', because of the use of Adam Smith's face.
