Exchanging Euro coins for Kenyan Shillings?

by Visitor

I'm wondering where can one exchange their euro coins for Kenyan shillings in Nairobi? I have so many piled up in my bag and want to get rid them by exchanging them for Kenyan coins or money. Most exchange bureaus do not accept coins. Any pointers will be appreciated.

I also think it is hard to get rid of the coins. I dont think tourists would like to change them either cause they cant use them on holiday. I dont know any exchange bureau accepting coins or where you can pay with them. But let me contact one of my local friends if they know any option.

Hi, if banks and forex bureaus don't accept euro coins, you have a problem. But do they also refuse euro coins if the commission is higher? Maybe there's a small independent forex office where the owner is doing the changing himself? If you have a bag full of coins then perhaps you're willing to exchange 11 or 12 euro coins for a 10 euro paper note?

Another option is to approach Europeans and ask them. Many will be willing to exchange a 10 euro note for coins, usually without expecting anything in return. If you want to make larger deals you.

Or maybe someone in the readership has an alternative idea?

good luck,
Arjen
