Currency Exchange?

Question

Last time when I travelled to UK, I got back with me few pences and Pounds (coins). I wanna know where I can exchange them in India. I enquired in Forex, they said they dont take coins.

I have lot of such coins. Wanna know where I can get them converted to Indian Currency.

Answer 1

I do not think you will be able to get exchange for coins from any money changer.

Answer 2

No money exchange accepts coins. It has value only in the country of origination and as collector's item.

If you are in Kolkata - I can buy them, as I have a hobby of coin collection. But I will not take more than one no. of any specific coin.
