Acquiring foreign money
for your collection

How do you acquire foreign money for your collection?

From people who have travelled overseas
Sometimes people have leftover money from trips abroad, and often it is not a large enough sum to warrant the expense (the mark-up and the commission fees) to exchange or cash it in. If they are not holding on to the bills for any particular reason, then they may give them to you for the asking.

From your own travels
Perhaps you've been lucky enough to travel internationally, and have some currency left from those adventures.

From a foreign money seller
There are people who serve the foreign money collector market, and they are usually called dealers. They are different from foreign currency exchange bureaus. From a dealer, you can purchase only those bills you want, and they are usually in much better condition than at the foreign currency exchange offices. Also, the exchange offices deal in quantities, and usually you cannot exchange just one bill from every country. Furthermore, a dealer may offer a wider variety of bills from more countries than a foreign currency exchange bureau can.
