Is anybody from around columbia tennesssee and know where a coin shop is I am up here working and off today and want go to a coin shop.
I checked "Locate Dealer" on NGC, and there isn't one listed in Columbia, but there is one listed in Franklin about 23 miles away. http://www.ngccoin.com/services/dealer-listing.aspx Chris
Also heard there is a good one in Murfreesboro. Never been. http://www.smyrnacoin.com/ Is not that far away. http://www.jimscoinservice.net/, but its closed today And take your pick=http://www.yellowpages.com/murfreesboro-tn/coin-dealers
Do NOT go to the one in Murfreesboro (Jims coin store). To be fair, there are 2 there, one guy is decent (middle tn coin and jewelry), one is terrible (jims coin store). Told me my 1911-D $2 1/2 was fake, when it was later graded as genuine. He did not even know where the mint mark was supposed to be on it.
No, just a few around middle tn. The guy in Franklin was pretty good, but the jims coins ship guy was terrible. Of course, I only went to show/talk about gold indians, which not everyone knows. But do not act like you know about them if you don't!
There is a coin shop in Dickson, TN. It's been awhile since I've been out that way, however it's called the coin shop trading post. I've only been in there once. It looks like he had a good selection of coins, and he showed me a nice MS 20C piece while I was there.
Hey, I said I'd never been. Just heard other ppl say it was a good place. Also thought you might be the jwitten that went to Knoxville. But know different now!!
It's home. Do wish there were more CS around. Like I mentioned in another thread the other day. I've got to travel a 100 miles to anywhere there's more that two shops in the same town. That Jim's Coins I mentioned, someone that had gone to school at MTSU had seen it and mentioned it to me. That was some time back. I've got a list of CS around the mid-state area that I want to stop at when I'm in the vicinity. I'll cross Jim's off....
I'll have to make note of these places to go visit. My uncle lives in Dickson, and those country drives can be pretty amazing.
The one in dickson is not a average coin store it is three guys who have all kinds of stuff to buy sell and trade unlike a regular coon store in my opinion
