Lira to eurol
Can Italian lira still be exchanged in Italy for Euros? We have about $10. US equivalent in Italian lira left over from a trip we took a few years ago. We had always thought we'd use it when we returned to Italy, but then the Euro came along. If the lira can be exchanged for Euros, are there only certain banks that would exchange? We will be in Rome for three days in October 2015, and would like to exchange the lira there. Are they now worthless, or can they be exchanged?

for info -
some of the pre-Euro currencies can still be changed at the respective national banks; and some can't.

I can't understand why anyone would carry around a 500-lira coin to unblock a supermarket cart. Are they afraid someone is going to nab the cart to get the coin?
Anyway, I'm sure the shopkeepers who've given me 500 lire in change knew very well what coin it was.
