Where can I exchange old £1 Coins?

If you’re asking “Where can I change old £1 coins?” the answer is simple: banks, shops, and supermarkets will no longer exchange them. The round £1 coin was withdrawn in October 2017 and is no longer legal tender. That means you cannot spend them in shops, deposit them at your bank, or exchange them at travel money counters.

The only practical solution is to use a specialist service like Cash4Coins, which exchanges old £1 coins quickly and securely.
