Which year do I claim income from a royalty check that was dated 2021 but I did not deposit it till 2022?

This check (from oil royalty) was dated 6/25/2021.  I just discovered I had not deposited it last year (2021). Should this be put in the 2021 income section or should I wait till next year's taxes, since it will show as deposited in 2022.
