The check was never cashed and is now stale. I would argue that you owe the face value of the check as you never really paid. I think it is equally the fault of the person to whom you paid. They lost this and they never said anything about it for 2 whole years. I would at least make the argument that its not your fault for that and you should not have to pay 2 years of interest.
