Bryce G. Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 My partner likes to collect foreign currency. He'd prefer to get "nice" looking bills/coins from banks of countries that he travels to. Does anyone else do this, and what has your experience been like on cruises? We'll be looking for: Nassau, Bahamas (Bahamanian Dollar) St. Maarten (Dutch Antillean Guilder) (He's not interested in the Euro). We've scouted out banks near port at each location, but are unsure JUST how difficult it'll be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 We've done that in the past. The merchants often have local currency available and you may be able to ask for your change in the local currency. As far as getting a "nice" bill, well, that's going to be a bit up to chance this way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Locals will be all too happy to give you their local currency in exchange for dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
