About Colombian Peso Exchange

The Colombian Peso (COP) is the official currency of Colombia, a popular destination for travellers drawn to its cities, coffee regions, and Caribbean coastline. We accept all denominations of Colombian Peso banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.

Current Colombian Peso Banknotes

Colombia’s current banknote series, first issued from 2015 onwards, features a colourful cast of the country’s most celebrated figures. The range includes notes such as the 50,000 peso note honouring Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez, and the 100,000 peso note — the highest-value denomination in circulation. We accept all denominations in this series, from the lower values right up to the 100,000 peso note.

Old Series & Damaged Notes

Unlike most high street exchanges, we also buy older Colombian Peso banknotes that are no longer in everyday circulation, including designs such as the 50,000 peso note featuring Jorge Isaacs Ferrer and older issues such as the 1,000 peso note. Damaged notes are accepted provided they remain at least 50% intact, though the rate offered may be slightly lower than for notes in good condition.

Colombian Peso Coins

We buy Colombian Peso coins across a range of denominations, including the 500 peso coin and the 200 peso coin, as well as smaller denominations that most exchanges won’t touch. Rates for coins are slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling involved, but there is no need to sort or separate them before sending.

Why Exchange With Us?

  • Competitive exchange rates updated daily
  • Accept coins and damaged notes that banks won’t take
  • We verify your currency and pay you within 5 working days
  • No hidden fees or charges

Colombian Peso Exchange FAQ

Do you accept Colombian Peso banknotes from older series?

Yes, we do. We buy older Colombian Peso notes alongside the current series issued from 2014–2015 onwards. The rate may be marginally lower for withdrawn designs, but we will always make you an offer rather than turn them away.

Can I exchange damaged Colombian Peso notes?

Yes, in most cases. We apply a straightforward 50% intact rule — as long as more than half of the note is present and identifiable, we will exchange it. This makes us a practical option if your pesos have been through the wash or had a rough journey home from Bogotá.

Do Colombian banks or UK post offices accept leftover pesos?

Most UK banks and post offices will not exchange Colombian Pesos, as the currency is not widely traded on the UK high street. Sending them to a specialist service like ours is usually the most convenient way to recover their value.

How do I send my Colombian Pesos and when will I be paid?

Simply box up your pesos and post them to us yourself — we recommend using a tracked service for peace of mind. Once we receive and verify the currency, we will pay you within 5 working days by bank transfer or PayPal. If you are not happy with our offer, we will return your currency free of charge.

I have Colombian Peso coins as well as banknotes — can I send them all together?

Yes, you can send coins and banknotes in the same parcel. We accept a range of Colombian Peso coins, including older issues, though the exchange rate for coins is slightly lower than for banknotes due to handling costs. If you also have other Latin American currencies left over from your travels, such as Peruvian Soles or Brazilian Reais, we can exchange those too.
