Gosh, that was a surreal experience. We just emerged from Sainsbury's 50 quid *richer*. They have a shiny machine which counts the coins very quickly, and donates 8% to Cancer Research. Plus I have about 25 quid of Euros and 5 quid of Deutschmarks (!) - which I *think* I can cash in at a German bank.

I've been collecting change since before I went to Uni, maybe I should go find one of these counting machines.

Did it actually count the foreign money for you?

No - current english coins only. In fact, it warns that it might swallow any foreign coins included, and not count them.
