I'm not sure if this is the best place for this, but I have a question. I have a box full of euro coins, about 100 dollars worth, as well as some other small denominations in other currencies such as Tanzania and Kenyan schillings. I've called some places local to me (I live in Indianapolis) and they all say that they won't exchange coins for dollars. Is there some place where I can exchange these coins? Are there banks that will handle the exchange? I'm sure the fees will be ridiculous, but these coins aren't doing anything at the moment, and I could use the money right now. Thanks

Actually from my experience most banks don't. There are a number of online companies that let you mail in coins, but I have not tried any myself. Simple Google search for forex coins for us dollar will give u a few hits.

In Europe, airport and train station exchanges take coins, at pretty extortionate margins though. You could try selling your money to somebody else who's going to the EU at a 90% rate, that'd probably be more than you'd get at an exchange.

Just save them for a friend who goes to Europe. Give/sell the money to them.
