Most banks do currency exchanges but you'll get absolutely raped by the amount they get.
The banks (at least Bank of America) wasn't too bad when I exchanged some dollars for euros. The rates were a little high, but not nearly as bad as the currency exchange centers at airports, they rape you on the exchange rate. The best rate I got was just using my BoA debit card at ATMs in Germany. They have a thing with Deutsche Bank, where I didn't pay any extra fees for using their ATMs. As far as selling currency back goes, I ended up only having a couple Euros left so it wasn't worth the effort, but you'd probably get the best rate (not a wonderful rate, but it's the best you'd do) at the bank since going to Afghanistan and using an ATM to deposit it into your account isn't exactly an option.
Or... this could be the perfect excuse to take a nice Spring vacation to Afghanistan.
