Euro Coin Exchange, the leading buyer of euro coins in the U.S., recently announced that it would begin buying coins from travelers returning with loose change from Australia, Canada, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, Poland and Switzerland.
According to Euro Coin Exchange owner Ken Mitteldorf, the addition of seven new countries was a logical decision. “In the past, when customers asked if we buy Yen, or Swiss Francs, or any currencies other than Euros or Pounds, we’ve had to turn them away. Not anymore.”
From its office in suburban Atlanta, Euro Coin Exchange (http://www.webuyeuros.com) has established itself as the leading buyer of non-collectable euro and British coins from individuals and small businesses on the internet. Mitteldorf observed, “Our customers are thrilled when they find out about our service. In many cases, they have been told by their bank that their euro coins or British change are worthless in the U.S. We offer them a fair price and a convenient transaction, regardless of where they live. Now we can offer them even more choices.”
On its web site, Euro Coin Exchange reminds its customers “We can’t perform miracles.” The price it pays for all coins depends upon prevailing exchange rates, the demand for coins in the market, transportation costs and other factors. Business owner Mitteldorf advises travelers, “Spend your foreign coins before you come home. That’s your absolute best deal. If you bring coins home, and want to exchange them for dollars, come see us. We’re as close as your computer and convenient as your mailbox.”
