Press Alt+1+5+6 (All numbers on the number pad, with Num Lock turned on). The result is this: £

I have a US laptop too, pressing shift and 3 together gets the £ sign, not sure how that works as there is a hash symbol on the key itself.

Easy answer... you can either copy the character from the character map (start/run/charmap enter) or you can adjust the keyboard to have the '4' key show the pound or euro.. but changing the keyboard layout.

In Control Panel, Regional Settings - select UK for your keyboard.
The key will still have a #, but will show a £ when you press it
