Bury them.

Someone will dig them up in 3000 years and thank you profusely for it.

Banks and money exchanges seldom exchange coins, it is not worth their while. There are many charities that collect and use foreign coins, some work with banks who organise collection. Ask at your local bank if they have such a program. In Australia, Qantas collects foreign coins from air travellers and gives them to charity. US airlines might do the same.

Money exchange places and banks rarely exchange coins. Qantas and Cathay Pacific (and probably other airlines) have a deal where they collect coins from passengers and donate them to charity. Try ringing an airline and see if they will take the coins off your hands.

I have a pile of Canadian coins that I can't get rid of - the money exchange places say that the weight of the coins isn't worth the postage to Canada.

Check with a coin shop.

Also, check with your bank and find out if there's a bank that does foreign currency exchange.

Those are your best options. Check both out so you get the best deal.

Go to a school. Offer them for fair value of exchange (or donate them for this value) to the social studies department.

If they are collectible and/or worth a great deal, you might want to visit a collector's store, antique store, pawn shop, etc. and sell them or swap them for something you want.

If they are not collectible, but would exchange for a substantial amount of money, ask a banker for a recommendation.

Good Luck and Bless You!!

If you have a lot you can exchange them at a money exchange, but you probably won't get a whole lot. Canadian coins are worth more than US money right now so I would reccomend cashing those in for sure.

you can try to sell them to a coin shop or just give them to a school for class projects.

If it's even worth it, take it to your bank and they will give you the best exchange rate for your foreign currency. If you're only going to get $10 credit then keep it for memories.
