I'm taking a trip to Hilton Head & going through Savannah - checking to see if there are any shops in that area that are with visiting? I focus on medals, US Philippines coins, 20th century World, Civil War Tokens, & "oddball" things, & love to find shops with sprawling "junk" bins, if that narrows things down.
I have a little place in Beaufort and a few years back I went searching for coin haunts. I don't go to Hilton Head. That place ain't my cup-o-tee really..... But I can tell you that there are two places that say they are coin dealers in Beaufort. One is a pawn shop that really isn't a coin shop. He just wants to buy your gold too cheap. The other place is on the main drag in Beaufort. His is more of a curio shop with one case in the corner of the store that does have coins. There does seem to be a half decent variety of 19th century stuff in that case, but I found them to be pretty pricey. Priced for tourists with money to spend sort of a place...... Now if you see someplace worth plundering in Hilton Head, please let me know! I avoid Hilton Head because it is geared towards shoppers and I am NOT one of those. My wife spends a lot in Hilton Head but I refuse to accompany her on her sprees.
Off subject a bit but you will appreciate this. Between Hilton Head and Beaufort is a little berg called Port Royal. In Port Royal is a little boardwalk around what they call the Cypress Swamp. It's maybe a thirty minute walk around the boardwalk, but it is the coolest thirty minutes you will spend if you love wildlife.
