Danish Kroner Banknotes & Coins We Accept

To exchange your Danish Kroner for cash, select the coins or banknotes you want to add to your account below.

About Danish Kroner Exchange

The Danish Krone (DKK) is the official currency of Denmark, Greenland, and the Faroe Islands. We accept all denominations of Danish banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.

Current Danish Banknotes

Denmark’s current banknote series features bridges and prehistoric artefacts, with denominations ranging across a variety of values. The higher-value notes, including the 500 kroner and 1000 kroner, incorporate modern security features such as watermarks and colour-shifting ink. We accept all current denominations, including the smaller 50 and 100 kroner notes, so bring everything you have left over from your trip.

Old Series & Damaged Notes

Unlike most high street exchanges, we also buy older and withdrawn Danish banknotes, including earlier issues such as the 1000 kroner issued 2004 and the 50 kroner issued 1999, as well as much older notes going back several decades. 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. If you have Scandinavian currency from other countries too, we also exchange Norwegian Kroner and Swedish Kronor.

Danish Krone Coins

We accept a wide range of Danish coins, including current issues such as the 20 krone coin and the 10 krone coin, as well as older withdrawn coin designs. Rates for coins are slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling involved, but we accept all denominations including the smaller 1, 2, and 5 krone pieces and the 50 øre coin.

Danish Krone Exchange FAQ

Does Denmark still use the Krone, or has it switched to the Euro?

Denmark still uses the Krone today, despite being a member of the European Union. The country has an opt-out from the Euro and has chosen to retain the DKK, so current Danish banknotes and coins remain fully valid and exchangeable.

Can I exchange very old Danish banknotes, such as notes from the 1950s or 1960s?

Yes, we do accept older withdrawn Danish banknotes, including issues going back to the mid-twentieth century. The rate offered for very old notes may be slightly lower than for more recent series, but we will always make you an offer rather than turning them away.

Do you accept Danish øre coins as well as krone coins?

Yes! We accept the 50 øre coin alongside all krone denominations. Denmark phased out the 25 øre and smaller øre coins some years ago, so the 50 øre is the smallest coin still in circulation — and we are happy to take it.

What happens after I send my Danish Kroner to you?

Simply box up your Danish banknotes and coins and post them to us yourself. Once we receive and verify your 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 a mix of Danish and Faroese currency — can you exchange both?

Yes, we can help with both. Danish Krone banknotes issued by Danmarks Nationalbank are accepted here, and we also exchange Faroese Kronur separately, as Faroese notes are a distinct issue not accepted in mainland Denmark. If you are unsure which notes you have, feel free to contact us and we will be happy to help.
