Hi all,

I recently found some Ugandan Shillings in my late fathers possessions, does anyone know where I can change these to sterling, I cant find anything online??

Thanks in advance

Probably not.
In 1966 the Bank of Uganda was established and the first Ugandan Shilling was introduced. The banknotes and coin changed several times as a result of changes in regime. Due to high inflation, a new Shilling was created in 1987 at a rate of 100 old Shillings to 1 new one. On March 2013, the 1987 series of UGX was demonetized and in April 2013, the minor currency unit was changed from 100 to 0.

Thanks, I had a suspicion that might be the case.
