About Peruvian Soles Exchange

The Peruvian Sol (PEN) is the official currency of Peru, one of South America’s most visited destinations for travellers drawn to Machu Picchu and the Andes. We accept all denominations of Peruvian Sol banknotes and coins, including older series and damaged notes.

Current Peruvian Sol Banknotes

Peru’s current banknotes feature notable figures from the country’s history and come in a range of denominations with modern security features including watermarks, security threads, and colour-shifting ink. Unlike most high street exchanges, we accept all current Sol banknotes, from lower-value notes right up through the higher denominations — you won’t need to leave any behind.

Old Series & Damaged Notes

Unlike most currency exchanges, we also buy older withdrawn Peruvian Sol banknotes as well as notes that have seen better days. Provided a damaged note is at least 50% intact, we can usually make you an offer, though the rate may be slightly lower than for current-series notes. If you’re also sitting on leftover currency from elsewhere in the region, we buy Chilean Pesos and Colombian Pesos too.

Peruvian Sol Coins

We accept Peruvian Sol coins, including the 1 Sol coin, the 2 Sol coin, and the 5 Sol coin, along with all other denominations. Exchange rates for coins are slightly lower than for banknotes due to the additional handling costs involved, but we are happy to take them when most other services won’t.

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

Peruvian Sol Exchange FAQ

Do you accept both current and old Peruvian Sol banknotes?

Yes, we accept both current and withdrawn Peruvian Sol banknotes. Older series notes are exchangeable, though the rate may be slightly lower than for current-issue notes still in circulation in Peru.

Can I exchange Peruvian Sol coins as well as banknotes?

Yes! We accept a range of Peruvian Sol coins, including the 1 Sol, 2 Sol, and 5 Sol coins. Most high street banks and bureaux de change won’t touch foreign coins, so we’re one of the few options available to you in the UK.

My Peruvian Sol notes are torn or worn — can I still exchange them?

Yes, we can usually accept damaged Peruvian Sol banknotes as long as the note is at least 50% intact. The rate offered may be slightly lower than for notes in good condition, but it’s far better than being left with currency you can’t spend.

How do I send my Peruvian Soles to you and when will I be paid?

Simply box up your Soles securely and post them to us yourself — we recommend using a tracked service for peace of mind. Once we receive and verify your currency, payment is made within 5 working days via bank transfer or PayPal. If for any reason you’re unhappy with our offer, we’ll return your currency to you free of charge.

Is the Peruvian Sol still in use today?

Yes, the Sol is the active currency of Peru and has been in use in its current form since 1991. If you’ve returned from a trip to Peru with leftover notes and coins, they are current legal tender there, which means we can offer a solid rate on them.
