I believe so? You can use Scottish pound coins in the UK and they follow the same rates etc. Probably best to ask Google :P

I think you can. Since Guernsey is part of the United Kingdom and since you use the same currency "Pound sterling" then why not?


Edit:

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.


Been on a few sites. Some of them say yeah there shouldn't be a problem but others say you may have problems due to it only being a legal tender in Guernsey and so on.

No it's notttttttttt it's part of the British Empire (I'm not even sure if that's the correct way to describe it but it's definitely not in the UK). But yeah, it is legal tender.

Yes. Currency from geurnsey is sterling and legal tender in the UK.

The Channel Islands are not in the UK, the way to describe them are "British Crown Dependencies".

Legally shops have to accept Guernsey coins, however certain places will most likely be fussy or confused, corner shops for example.

beat this. i got a fawkland islands £1 in change before. now that's come a long way.

i've never had a problem spending isle of man, guernesy, jersey £1 coins. They all look exactly the same right? but just have an odd side.
