On the basis of a 15% increase in customer demand for foreign currency exchange services thus far in 2017, Liberty Coin Service in Lansing has added five more currencies to those it regularly stocks for immediate delivery to travelers. The additional currencies now stocked are from the Czech Republic, Hungary, Iceland, India, and Israel.

Tom Coulson, CEO and owner of Liberty Coin Service, said, “When banks and credit unions largely curtailed their foreign currency exchange services in 2010, Liberty Coins stepped up to offer local travelers a convenient and cost-competitive way to quickly obtain foreign currencies. Since then, customer demand has more than doubled for currencies spent in the Eurozone (27 nations) plus the countries of Australia, Canada, China, Denmark, Great Britain, Japan, Mexico, Norway, and Switzerland. Demand has been growing year by year. In response to growing volume we created a brochure that we provide at no charge titled “Helpful Tips For International Travel.” We had also received enough special orders for money from the Czech Republic, Hungary, Iceland, India, and Israel that we have now committed to stock them for prompt delivery. In all, Liberty Coins carries foreign currencies spent in more than forty nations. Plus, we continue to purchase currencies from more than sixty countries.”
