If you refer to demonetised British decimal coins, some banks may accept them from account holding customers at face value, but they are under no obligation to do so.
Alternatively, you could hang on to them and give them to your grand children in years to come when they might be a novelty, or perhaps even worth something.

Does the Royal Australian Mint recycle Australian coins?
Coins returned to the Royal Australian Mint (RAM) because they are worn, damaged or mutilated, or coins that were minted surplus to requirements, are melted down and recycled into new coins if possible or applicable. The RAM does not deal directly with the public. Worn, damaged or mutilated coins should be deposited with a bank. The Bank will then make the necessary arrangements to get the coins back to the mint and out of circulation. Coins that are so badly mutilated or damaged that they cannot be identified will not be accepted.
