    L and L Gold and Silver in Columbia. He always has very interesting stuff, but turns over volume quickly. You may find something great, or he may not have much, depends on the day. If you go there, bring cash as he only accepts cash if he doesn’t already know you.

    Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

    Is that place still run by Mike? I had good experiences with him years ago.

    If you go a bit further north, there is a good coin shop in Wilmington, NC.... Do not remember the name, but visited it when I was visiting my daughter in NC. Cheers, RickO

    I live in the Rock Hill area, and I used to go to the Hyatt Coin shop up in Charlotte about once a month. They have a very large variety of coins there, and great staff. I highly recommend checking them out.

    There's Independence Coin in Charlotte as well, but I haven't been there. Still probably worth a try, let us know where you go!

    Steve is a great guy and knows his coins. I used to travel to that area a couple times a year for work but no longer.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
