Guernsey Pound - Where The Currency Is Accepted

Where The Currency Is Accepted

The Guernsey pound, and other notes denominated in pound sterling (including those issued by the Bank of England, Scottish, Manx and Northern Irish notes and the Jersey pound) may be used in Guernsey. Some shops will also accept euros and other currencies can be exchanged in bureaux de change. The Guernsey pound is legal tender only in Guernsey but also circulates freely in Jersey and is acceptable in most places in the U.K. which will accept Scottish and Northern Irish notes. It can also be exchanged in other places using banks and bureaux de change.

Famous quotes containing the words currency and/or accepted:

    Common experience is the gold reserve which confers an exchange value on the currency which words are; without this reserve of shared experiences, all our pronouncements are cheques drawn on insufficient funds.
    René Daumal (1908–1944)

    And what is an authentic madman? It is a man who preferred to become mad, in the socially accepted sense of the word, rather than forfeit a certain superior idea of human honor. So society has strangled in its asylums all those it wanted to get rid of or protect itself from, because they refused to become its accomplices in certain great nastinesses. For a madman is also a man whom society did not want to hear and whom it wanted to prevent from uttering certain intolerable truths.
    Antonin Artaud (1896–1948)
