Donating stamps and coins

Do you have an old stamp collection lurking in the loft or a stash of foreign coins at the back of a drawer?

Used stamps, coins, banknotes and other collectables such as medals and badges can be donated to your local Oxfam shop for us to pass on to our specialists.

Oxfam has around 50 specialist stamp departments, run by experienced and knowledgeable volunteers. All stamps are carefully valued and priced. Albums and collections are particularly welcome, but we accept all used stamps (foreign or UK).

For further information, please email Jackie Whittaker at jawhitaker@oxfam.org.uk.

Some of our specialist stamp departments also sort and sell coins. Others save donations of currency for collection by Travelex, who count every coin and note received and reimburse Oxfam according to the current exchange rate. Even obsolete currencies such as those replaced by the Euro are accepted and of some value.
