No money changers handle provincial ("default") or Klatchian (as of 2011-09-27) money.
[edit] Player shop changers
The changers that can be put in shops depend on the actual coins that have been put into them, so that if you want to change some money to ten-dollars, there have to be enough ten-dollars in it.
[edit] Alternatives
Some banks have branches in locations with different currency, so that it's possible to deposit Lancre money in one branch, and withdraw Morporkian money in another (for example).
