About American Dollar Exchange
The United States Dollar (USD) is the official currency of the United States of America and one of the most widely held and traded currencies in the world. We accept all denominations of US Dollar banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.
Current US Dollar Banknotes
Modern US Dollar banknotes feature a range of advanced security measures, including colour-shifting ink, embedded security threads, and microprinting, making them among the most counterfeit-resistant notes in circulation. We accept all current denominations, including high-value notes such as the $100 banknote issued in 2013 and the $50 banknote, as well as all smaller denominations from the $1 upwards.
Old Series & Damaged Notes
One of the quirks of US Dollar banknotes is that older designs remain legal tender in the United States indefinitely — the Federal Reserve does not withdraw and demonetise old series in the way many other central banks do. Unlike most high street exchanges, we also accept genuinely aged or worn notes, including earlier issues such as the $100 note issued in 1993 and historic large-denomination notes like the $1,000 banknote issued in 1934. Damaged notes are accepted provided they remain at least 50% intact, though the rate applied may be slightly lower than for undamaged currency.
US Dollar Coins
We accept a wide variety of US Dollar coins, including dollar coins such as the Sacagawea dollar and the Presidential dollar series, as well as smaller denominations including quarters, dimes, nickels, and cents. Coins are exchanged at a slightly lower rate than banknotes due to the additional handling costs involved, but we are happy to take them when most high street exchanges will not.
