Is there any forex agency in Ireland that will process foreign coins?

I'm a volunteer for a small but active charity. We recently received what looks to be a large enough donation (maybe €400-500) of mixed currency coins....various North American, Latin American & middle Eastern currencies.

Looking online I can see that we would be able to get these processed if we were in the UK...at a cost certainly, but to us 90% of something is better than 0%. We have the option to courier the coins to the UK, but given that they weigh going on 70 kg, this will be expensive, giving us even less return. We'll do it if it's our only option, but I'm wondering f anyone knows if it's possible to get it done here anywhere?
