As far as Bureau d'Exchange (or whatever they're called) goes, they only provide notes, don't they?

Some charities collect spare foreign coins from people who have returned from holiday, someone does this where I work for charity. I'm sure they'd be more than willing to give you some of what they've recived in exchange for an equivalent donation in sterling (they'd probably have quite a variety too).
Alternatively just send an email to everyone at work (if they let you) asking if anyone has any left over foreign currency - probably best to do in Sept after the peak holiday period.

I have a small collection of foreign coins, I am willing to part with them provided the new owner would take them to increase his/her collection and in no situation sell them. Well I stay in New Delhi, India so the new owner has to pay for shipping. Contact me if interested.

Ebay.com Look under coins. They sell lots of foreign coinage by the pound.

There are small shops that offer coins, notes, postcards, stamps and other things people can collect.

Try car boot sales, jumble sales or bric a brac shops. Or you could always ask family and friends to bring back some from their holiday! :D

car boot sales always seem to have someone selling foreign coins and stuff like that very cheaply
