Exchange Damaged Coins for Supermarkets and Retailers

Running a busy supermarket or retail store means handling thousands of coins every single day. From tills and self-checkouts to vending machines and cash offices, coins are constantly moving. But mixed in with the good coins are always some that are damaged, bent, rusty, chipped, or corroded.

Every retailer knows the problem:

❌ Coins jam tills, self-checkouts, and vending machines.

❌ Cash office staff set aside bent or chipped coins.

❌ Rusty coins (often from outdoor charity boxes) pile up with nowhere to go.

❌ Banks refuse to accept damaged or mutilated coins.

The result? Supermarkets and retailers across the UK are left with bags of coins that cannot be banked—and are often written off as worthless.

That’s where Cash4Coins comes in. We offer a specialist damaged coin exchange service, trusted by UK banks, national supermarkets, visitor attractions, and charities, to recover value from coins that nobody else will accept.

Why Supermarkets End Up with Damaged Coins

Retailers handle more coins than most businesses, which means they also see more damage. Common problems include:

• Self-checkouts and tills – bent or misshaped coins jam coin mechanisms.

• Cash office sorting – staff regularly put aside coins that don’t fit coin counters.

• Charity collections at checkouts – coins in outdoor donation boxes become rusty and corroded.

• Vending and parking machines – coins get scratched, chipped, or bent in use.

• General circulation – coins simply worn down, discoloured, or broken over time.

For many supermarkets, this creates a steady stream of unusable coins that just sit in the cash office.

Why Banks Won’t Accept Damaged Coins

High street banks have a strict policy: they will only accept coins that are fit for circulation. That means:

• No bent or chipped coins.

• No rusty, corroded, or chemically damaged coins.

• No coins with cracks or missing pieces.

For supermarkets, this means bags of coins piling up in the cash office that can’t be deposited. Many retailers simply store them or write them off as a loss.

The Retail Problem: Coins in Cash Offices

In conversations with retailers, one theme comes up again and again:

“We’ve got bags of damaged coins sitting in the cash office. The bank won’t take them, but we don’t know what else to do.”

This is common across the UK retail sector. Self-checkouts in particular reject huge numbers of coins, which staff set aside. In many cases, supermarkets are left with hundreds or thousands of pounds worth of unusable coins.

With Cash4Coins, that problem disappears. We turn those rejected coins into value—helping retailers recover money they thought was lost.
