Notes or coins for the newsboy? (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
paper money
'notes or' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'coins for the newsboy?' is the wordplay.
'coins' becomes 'money' (I've seen this before).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'the newsboy?' becomes 'paper' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'money' after 'paper' is 'PAPER MONEY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for paper money that I've seen before include "Banknotes" , "Used as legal tender in place of gold and silver" .)
