The most valuable coin in the world: Double Eagle

The history behing the most valuable coin in the world: the gold coin Doubl

In this blog we usually talk about currencies or travels. But this week we are going to talk about a coin, in singular, since it is the only one in the world and therefor the most expensive coin in the world.

We are talking about the coin known as the Double Eagle from 1933 designed by Augustus Saint-Gaudens. In the 8 th of July 2021 this coin was optioned in Sotheby´s for the incredible amount of 18.872.250 dollars. The previous “most expensive” coin in the world was the “flowing hair” silver dollar from 1794/95 sold in 2013 for 10 million dollars.

The design of the Double Eagle is not just interesting but also beautiful. In on side the coin has the Liberty on a beautiful minted image, and on the other side the amazing eagle in flight is shown. The face value of this coin is 20$.
There is a big history behind this coin, not just historical facts but also laws that nowadays still active. The United States law stablishes that this is the only gold coin that can be “in circulation” and owned by a private party. That is why, even there are more known coins like this one, the one optioned is the only one in the world not owned by the American government.

The history of the Double Eagle its quite remarkable. This one the last gold coin ever minted by the US government, but the fact that Franklin D. Roosevelt executed a gold embargo to the American citizens, the coin never was in circulation. Most of the coins were molten and just a few survived.

 

This one in particular has been on some of the most exclusive collections up until now and its original price was just the face value, 20 $. The last sell was private so we may never know who paid those almost 19 million for it.

If you come across this coin im afraid we will not be able to buy it from you at
Eurochange, not just because of the value, but also because we only accept notes. But if you have any kind of dollar notes: new, old, damaged, special, exclusive, collectable, etc please bring them to us and we will provide you with an exchange rate in each particular case. And not just the dollars, at Eurochange we buy all kinds of notes from all over the world, so just walk up to one of our Money Agents and ask them about it, we will be more than happy to help you.

The Pound Sterling

Countries where you can use the Sterling Pound

The Sterling Pound is one of the oldest and most known and used currencies in the world. It is actually the 4th most used currency in the world. The US dollar is number one, followed by the euro and on 3rd place the Yen in placed just above the pound. We all can picture a pound note in our minds even with recent changes. That is why we are going to tell you a but more about this currency, where can you use it and how at Eurochange you can get them or exchange them to Euros.

The pound, or the “quid” as is used in slang, can be used in many countries. And even if there is different coins and notes designs the value does not change, one pound is one pound no matter where they come from. But don’t be mistaken, we are talking about the sterling pound, since there are many other countries that use pound as their currency but is not the same currency. In Syria, Egypt, Sudan and Lebanon also use pound, but those countries do not use the sterling pound and the value is not the same. 

The sterling pound can be used in many countries around the globe. Of course, can be used in the United Kingdom, this means that you can use them in England, Scotland, Wales and Norther Ireland, remember than in Ireland you will need Euros to do your shopping. Within the UK, and even the value is the same, we will be able to see different designs on the notes. There are eight banks allowed to print their own starling pounds: Bank of England (England); Bank of Scotland, Royal Bank of Scotland, Clydesdale Bank (Scotland); and Bank of Ireland, First Trust Bank, Danske Bank and Ulster Bank (Nother Ireland). Don’t be afraid if you get one different note while you are traveling thru the UK, just check that it comes from one of the banks listed above and you will be ok.

Is that it? Not even close. There are many other countries or territories that also use the sterling pound. Jersey, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, Gibraltar, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, the British Antarctic Territory, and Tristan da Cunha make the list of places where you can spend your pounds larger. In all those places the official currency is the sterling pound. Some of them are well known, but others are basically deserted territories or colonies. 

Unfortunately, while you are in Spain you will not be able to spend your pounds to go around the country. Even you will be able to find some places they accept the currency the best thing to do is to exchange your pounds to Euros, the official Spanish currency. And the best way to do it is coming to Eurochange to do so. We have really good exchange rates for you.

The exchange rate is as good as the opposite way but also you can make your reservation at our website and we will have your pounds ready for you when you arrive to pick them up. 

See you Kuna

The replacement of the Kuna by the Euro as the oficial croatian currency

In less than a month Croatia´s legal tender will be the Euro. On January 1 st 2023 the Kuna will be no longer the official currency of the country. They will co-exist for a couple weeks before the Euro takes over.

Since 1994 the Kuna was the official currency in Croatia. The word kuna means "marten" in Croatian, referring to the historical use of marten pelts as units of value in medieval trading. The Kuna took over in 1994 after the Croatian dinar that was stablished in 1991, short life for a currency. 

At the Kuna notes we can find different personalities and historic placer from croatia. Ante Starčević, a politician, can be found on the 1000 kuna bills with the Zagreb Cathedral in the back of the note. Marko Marulić, poet, has his place on the 1000 kuna bill with the Diocleciano Palace in the back. 

While talking about coins, the Lipa, has different designs depending on which year was made. The ones made on the even years has animals and plants, but the names are in latin. While the ones made on the odd years have the name on croatian.

 

At Eurochange  we still accepting the Croatian Kuna, so don’t hesitate to come over one of our offices and exchange your Kunas into Euros before is too late. We will update you by next year with whether we still buying them or giving you more options. And even we are not yet there, from the Eurochange family we want to wish you a merry Christmas.

 

Black Friday. Miths and origens

A look into the popular shopping tradition and its origens

Today is black Friday. An American tradition that is no longer exclusive to the American citizens and its being adopted by many countries around the world. But where black Friday comes from? And what it is about? Let´s see the origins and why is the biggest shopping day of the year.  

The first time the term “Black Friday” was use not for the shopping day after thanksgiving. The first use was because of a financial crisis: the crash of gold market in 1869. Two wall street financers tried to buy as much gold as they could to try to rise the price. On Friday September 24th the conspiracy was reveal and the market went down and bankrupt everyone on the Wall Street market

But the well know story about the Thanksgiving shopping in Black Friday it is related to the retail market. Owners were on “red” meaning on loses and used to turn in “black” profits when the Thanksgiving holiday was really popular because of the discounts. Red was the color to mark the loses in the business world while black was the one used to mark the profits. Although this is a popular story, is inaccurate. 
 

The true story of the Black Friday is not smile and rainbows as is understood nowadays. Back in the 50´s, in Philadelphia, Black Friday was the terms to describe the chaos that was around the city. The reason for that chaos was nothing else than the multitudes that invaded the city to shop before the Army-Navy football game that was held the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Police had to work after the holiday, taking longer shifts and nonbeing able to spend the time with their families to take care of tourist and locals all over the city. By 1961, Philly´s merchants tried to change the name to Big Friday to delete the negative connotation but around 1980 the term Black Friday came back but with a positive connotation. The story we told at the beginning around profit and losses was the one that was told back then to turn it into a good thing. 
Black Friday spread all over the world and evolved. Now we have black Monday and other days around these dates related to discounts and sales on shopping.

 

In Spain we also “celebrate” Black Friday. But if you want to do some shopping in the Spanish country you will need some euros. So come to any of our Eurochange offices and exchange your currency into euros. And go ahead and ask us about some shopping centers, we will try to help you out, our rates are excellent but out service it is even better. 
 

New pound coins featuring King Charles

The release of the new UK coins featuring King Charles after the Queen´s de

New coins featuring the portrait of King Charles have been revealed, with a 50p carrying his image entering general circulation within weeks.

The coins follow centuries of tradition with the monarch now facing left – the opposite way to his predecessor
As with previous British kings, and unlike the Queen, he wears no crown.
King Charles personally approved the effigy, and was understood to be pleased with the likeness.

. The full inscription surrounding the King's image reads "CHARLES III • D • G • REX • F • D • 5 POUNDS • 2022", shortened from Latin, which translates to "King Charles III, by the Grace of God, Defender of the Faith".
The 50p coin will be available for general use well before the end of the year, distributed according to demand by banks, building societies and post offices.
They will co-circulate with coins featuring the late Queen, so those 27 billion coins will still be accepted in shops.
From the start of next year, coins from the 1p to the £2, which we use in day-to-day life, will be minted carrying the same image of King Charles. They will be sent out when needed to replace damaged and worn older coins and to cover any extra demand.
There will also be two new coins designs – on a 50p and a £5 coin – to celebrate the Queen, charting her journey from a young monarch to a long-standing head of state.

These are just coins but in Eurochange are waiting for the new notes to be released in order to add them to our long list of exchange currencies. And remember, if you want to exchange your pounds to Euros, come visit us! Check out locator and find a Eurochange office near you.
 

Money and The Queen

A look at the british currency´s history with Queen Elizabeth in them

Following the Queen's death on September 8 a number of changes have already begun getting underway, some of them being the first in a lifetime. For ordinary people Britain everyday things like money and stamps, both of which currently carry Queen Elizabeth II's face, will have to be replaced. Although the Bank of England has not yet confirmed the date that the money will change, there is likely to be a significant transition phase between notes and coins featuring Queen Elizabeth II and those with King Charles III's image. Taking this as our departing point we are going to take a walk down to money history lane and take a look back to all the notes that had Queen Elizabeth as the main character.

1960–1961 The Queen first appears on a Bank of England note

1971A second portrait for the £5 and £1 notes

1990 A timeless image for E Series

Since 1990 Creating a watermark

Since 2016 Portraits on polymer

From the Eurochange family we share the British’s loss. Times of changes are coming soon but we will remain the same. We still exchanging the old paper pounds to euro, but not all of them of course, anyways a note from 1960 will be more valuable that what the currency cost. Find us using our store locator and come to exchange your currency. 

And if you are interested on knowing more about the history of these historical moments on britain´s money, let us know in the comments and we will make another post going deeper in the history of some of those notes. 

 

 

When will paper £20 and £50 notes expire?

A brief explanation about the expiration of the £20 and £50 notes and what

 

When will paper £20 and £50 notes expire?

The Bank of England will be withdrawing legal tender status of paper £20 and £50 banknotes after 30 September 2022. According to the Bank of England, the majority of banknotes have been replaced but there are still more than £6bn worth of paper £20s and £8bn worth of paper £50s in circulation. After 30 September, these will no longer be legal tender.

 

Which ones are the polymer notes?

The latest polymer banknote to be issued was the £50 note “featuring Bletchley Park codebreaker and scientist Alan Turing” last year. The first plastic £20 note, featuring artist JMW Turner, was issued in February 2020. The £10 polymer features author Jane Austen, while the £5 shows war-time prime minister Sir Winston Churchill.

Why are they changing?

Bank of England’s Chief Cashier Sarah John said “Changing our banknotes from paper to polymer over recent years has been an important development, because it makes them more difficult to counterfeit, and means they are more durable." She also encouraged everyone to: “spend them now, or deposit them into a bank account.”

 

But what can I do with my old notes?

Don’t panic: the Bank of England honours every banknote that's ever been printed, so you'll always be able to take, or post, your note to London to swap it for a new one.

If you miss the 30 September deadline, you may still be able to deposit old notes at your bank. 

And what about in Spain?

At our Eurochange exchange currency offices you can bring them to us at any of our locations and we exchange you pound to euro .

Currency Mysteries: US Dollar and Sterling Pound

Curiosities about some of the american dollars and british pounds

The past week we went over some fun facts about the 4th of july. This week we are going to take a look on some fun facts about United States Dollars and British Pounds.

What does the Star on the serial number means on the US Dollars?

Many times people come to the currency exchange offices wondering about what the star means on their dollars. And we do have the answer: those are replacement notes.

And what is a “replacement note”? You may ask. Replacement notes are those that has to be printed again after there is a printing error occurs during a normal press run and renders a set of bills unusable.The replacement notes have a sequence of their own, using the star as their final "letter." This allows for 99,999,999 possible replacement notes for any given bank, series and denomination and there is about one error in every 100,000 U.S. bills.

But this is not the only time notes are replaced. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing receives around 25,000 mutilated currency redemption claims annually. Each bill is shredded and sent to waste energy facilities for disposal and a check it is sent in return to the bank that sent the damaged note.

And if you wonder… No, the star on the bills does not add any value in the dollar to euro exchange. Some private collector maybe can pay more for those notes, as well as for correlative serial number notes, or notes with printing errors, but oficially they all have their original value.

 

Some questions about sterling pounds.

There is nothing like a star in the sterling notes, but the british currency has many curiosities and fun historical facts.

Where the sterling pound name comes from? The british pound it´s also called sterling pound because historically the value was the equivalent to a pound of silver, hence why it's sometimes referred to as the "pound sterling.

And why is pound? The name can be trace back to the roman era , and it is translated from the word Libra which means weight or balance. More fully, the words Libra Pondo meant pound weight. I am sure you already assumed this fact, but just in case, this is the main reason why the symbol of the British Pound its an L, the same initial letter from Libra.

Are all the pound the same? There is nothing like the dollar star? In this case we can find some peculiarities on the old one pound coins. There are many countries that use the pound outside the UK. We can find brittish pounds also Falklands Pound, Guernsey Pound ,Gibraltar Pound , Manx Pound, Jersey Sterling Pound and St.-Helena Pound and some of them can be seen on the old 1 pound coin.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And we are back to the important question asked frequently on the money exchange offices: Do they have more value? And the answer, as in the dollar´s case, it is no. The value of those coins are the same as the original british pound when you trying to change pound to euro.

And last but not least: can I change my “star” dollars and my Sterling pounds everywhere? At Eurochange we accept all kind of notes. You can change pound to euro in all of our locations. And not just that, you can also buy dollars using euros but, even we cannot promise a star on our notes, we can guarantee a 5 star service from all our agents at Eurochange.

New currency: The Algerian Dinar

We have added a new currency to our list, the Algerian Dinar.

In Eurochange we are introducing new currencies constantly, today we want to present the one we added to our list a few weeks ago, it is the DZD, the Algerian dinar. As you well know, in EUROCHANGE you can change from DZD to Euro or from Euro to DZD.

 

The dinar (Arabic: دينار جزائري dinar jaza'iri, or دينار dinar; french dinar algérien) is the official currency of Algeria since April 1, 1964, when it replaced the Algerian franc. Its ISO 4217 code is DZD and its abbreviation is DA. Its name derives from the Roman denarius. The coin is divided into 100 cents. Both their import and export are totally prohibited. It is a non-convertible currency, this means that it is not listed on the stock exchange and the price depends on the Algerian monetary authorities who are the ones who set its equivalent against the other currencies.

  • COINS

At the time of its creation, a series of coins of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 cents, and a dinar, were put into circulation, being reflected in both Arabic and French. Due to the economic problems of the country, the cents were discarded although the prices are still reflected. And the 1 and 2 dinar coins almost stopped being used. The coins that circulate most frequently in Algeria are those of 5 dinars or higher. In August 2012, a new 200 dinar bimetallic coin was put into circulation in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of independence.

  • BANK NOTES

The Central Bank of Algeria (the Banque d'Algérie), is in charge of issuing the banknotes and coins of this North African country.The first series of Algerian dinar banknotes was issued in 1964 in denominations of 5, 10, 50 and 100 dinars. A second series appeared in 1970, made up of notes of 5, 10, 50, 100 and 500 dinar notes, in 1992 the fourth series came to light where the 1000 dinar notes were introduced and with the fifth and last series in circulation launched in 2000 dinar banknotes appeared in 2011.The texts on the obverses of the banknotes are written in Arabic, and those on the reverses in French, so that they differ from the old Algerian franc. The denominations of Algerian dinar banknotes in the current 1970 series are: 5, 10, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 and 2000 Algerian dinars.

 

If you are going to travel to Algeria or on the contrary you have left over dinars from a trip, look no further. Eurochange is your exchange house.

Banknotes of 50 and 20 British Pounds in paper, there is already a date for withdrawal

The Bank of England warns about the date of withdrawal of paper 50 and 20 p

THE BANK OF ENGLAND has issued a major update, reminding Britons that their £20 and £50 notes will soon be obsolete, prompting people to use them while they can.
 

Paper notes are common currency throughout the UK and many people are used to paying with them on a day to day basis. However, in a vital alert, the Bank of England has said that paper notes will be phased out entirely. Since many people still have them in various places around the house, it is important to take action. In a Twitter post, the Bank of England highlighted the matter in the run-up to Christmas. It read: “Last Christmas to spend your £20 paper and £50 bills. Retailers can still accept their £20 and £50 paper notes." However, the central bank also highlighted the date when this would no longer be the case. The old £20 and £50 notes will be officially phased out on 30 September 2022. They will be replaced by polymer alternatives as the last banknotes to be phased out of paper.
The £5 paper notes were the first to be phased out, ceasing to be legal tender in May 2017. The old £10 notes followed closely in March 2018, with replacements gradually entering circulation. The Bank of England has since introduced polymer £20 notes, first issued on February 20, 2020. The new £50 polymer note was first put into circulation on June 23, 2021. The The Bank of England's website has urged action on the £20 and £50 paper notes as they near maturity. It encourages people to spend or deposit them in the bank before the date of September 30, 2022. The reason for phasing out paper notes in the UK is clear and outlined by the central bank. He has explained that the newer banknotes have advanced security features, describing them as "our most secure set of polymer banknotes yet". The new £20 and £50 notes feature two windows and two-colour foil, which should make them very difficult to counterfeit.
However, aside from this, there are additional benefits to the newer polymer notes as well, with the Bank of England adding: “One of the benefits shared by all our polymer notes is that they last longer than paper notes and keep up. in better condition during its useful life. Use. "This note, like the polymer £10 and £20, will have a tactile feature to help visually impaired people identify the denomination."
Although older banknotes will no longer be legal tender, Britons need not panic. This is because the central bank will always accept them and they can be exchanged for legal tender. There are a number of ways that people will be able to deal with their old bills aside from spending them. A local bank branch, if open, should be the best port of call, as it's not likely to bother the Brits. Here, people will usually be able to bring their old bills to the counter to exchange them for the polymer alternatives. Some providers allow people to deposit the old currency into their bank account, which is also convenient. Alternatively, people can also visit the post office to deal with the matter and make the change. However, it is worth noting that once a note has been withdrawn from circulation, a bank or post office has no legal obligation to make an exchange. Finally, for those who are closer to home or wish to travel, the Bank of England can make the switch. It is located on Threadneedle Street, London, where a person can enter to exchange notes. They should be aware that there might be a wait time to get to a desk, depending on how busy it is at the time. Other people can mail their notes to the central bank if this is more appropriate for them.
 

If you are in Spain and you have banknotes out of circulation, you should know that at Eurochange we can make the change for you since we accept exotic currency, from all over the world, currency out of circulation and even deteriorated. Do not hesitate to call us or come to any office in our network and we will be happy to make the change for you.

Withdrawal of the 1000 Norwegian Krone banknote

Withdrawal of the one thousand Norwegian Krone banknote

In 2017 the Bank of Norway began a process of renewing its banknotes that ends on November 14, 2020 with the withdrawal of the 1000 Norwegian Krone banknote.

 

Note of 1000 Norwegian Kroner that will be withdrawn
Note of 1000 Norwegian Kroner that will be withdrawn

 

 

What banknote will be withdrawn?

The banknote that will no longer be in circulation is the 1000 Norwegian Krone banknote on which the portrait of the Norwegian painter Edward Munch appears. This banknote belongs to series 7 and is the last one of this series that was still in circulation. Thus, from November 14, the only Norwegian Krone banknotes in circulation will be the ones of series 8.

 

How do I exchange my old Norwegian Kroner banknotes into Euros?

Old Norwegian Kroner banknotes can only be exchanged at the Central Bank of Norway. Once removed, they can no longer be exchanged anywhere outside the country.

That is why we notify you before the end of the withdrawal period for the 1000 Norwegian Krone note, so that you can go to your nearest office to exchange them for Euros.

Although the official withdrawal deadline is November 14, keep in mind that at the Eurochange offices we may stop accepting them a few days before. To date we do not have a confirmed date, so we recommend you to check your Norwegian Kroner banknotes and make the exchange as soon as possible.

 

What do I do if I have other older Norwegian Kroner banknotes?

As we told you above, banknotes that are out of circulation cannot be exchanged anywhere else than the Central Bank of Norway. Some of them can be exchanged for free and the older ones are exchanged for a fee of 250 Kroner (about 22 Euros).

 

You can check if your Norwegian Kroner banknotes are valid on our website. Or if you prefer, you can go to your nearest currency exchange office and there we will check your banknotes.
