Does anyone know of any coin shops in Memphis Tennesse they would recommend visiting. I will be there in about a week. Thanks.
No. But, look up in the phone book for one. Check on the net for any coin shows or clubs and go to them. Get the Numismatic News magazine and check the the show section. Good Luck.
There are 2 on the south side that are pretty good. One is in the shopping center at Perkins and Knight Arnold, the other is just south of MSU on Park. Sorry I don't remember their business names at the moment, but I have had good experiences at both. The one that I do recall the name is where I have had BAD experiences... That was Herron-Hill, just off Poplar Ave.
My dad knew a coin shop that an old man ran, but the old man died and the shop closed. Here are some others(they are from Google): Name/Address/Phone Herron-Hill Inc/5007 Black Rd # 140, Memphis/(901) 683-9644 Mid-South Coin Co Inc/3894 Park Avenue, Memphis/(901) 324-2244 All American Coin Co/4544 Charleswood Avenue, Memphis/(901) 634-4544
