Donate Foreign Coins To Charity

You know the problem, you've just returned from holiday and you want to convert your foreign currency back to pounds. The travel agents, banks and post offices are more than happy to change your paper notes for you but they have absolutely no interest in changing the pocketful of loose change that you acquired while you were on holiday, it isn't cost efficient for them to do so. You're then left with the option of storing these till next year's holiday, assuming that is, that you can remember where you put them next year.

There are a very limited number of options that you can take with this loose change that you bring back from holiday. One of the options available to you is to search the internet for sites that specialise in gathering all this loose change from customers. There are less than ten sites that offer this service. They operate by aggregating all the coins together and provide a percentage return against your loose change that would be worthless otherwise. They are then able to bulk change this with the respective countries' banks. The websites will convert your loose change back into your preferred currency and either post you a cheque or wire transfer the money back to you.

Euroswap.co.uk supports schools clubs and charities by applying a higher exchange rate for collections of foreign coins that are sent to them for conversion into pounds sterling. The extra 5% additional exchange rate can be used as they see fit.
