OT (Sorta) Honolulu Dealer Help

It looks like a quick trip to Honolulu is happening early next month, so of course there will be a coin shop search happening.

Can anyone recommend a good dealer mainly for gold coins, light or darkside, there is no set coins in mind, just highish grade gold (UNC), bullion or collector if the price is right.

Thanks in Advance for any help.

    Some people buy T-shirts when they travel, others buy hats ,pins or spoons, for me its coins.

  • I can only tell you that -- at least the last time i checked in 1986-- the Island Coin Shop was/is located in the big Ala Moana shopping center (lower level, center area near the escalators) in Honolulu. Not a big shop, but a pretty good inventory from what i can remember. It fact, it was the very first coin shop i ever set foot in.
