€uro
Currency; We are happy to accept Euro cash payments in our shop.
We display our rate beside the counter. We normally allow the market
rate
rounded down to the next whole penny. For example, at the time of
writing, the
market rate is 0.6737, so we are allowing 67p per Euro (which is
probably
better than your bank will give you). You can also pay for auction lots
in Euro
banknotes (postal customers please confirm before sending). We also
accept
payments in our shop in Euros, and we buy the old “legacy” currencies,
as well
as other coins and notes.
