First time stopping in today and Clemson Coins, Currency, Bullion & Jewelry absolutely blew me away. The owner is awesome: a real straight shooter who doesn't waste anybody's time, including his own. He was knowledgeable, straightforward, answered all my questions clearly, and gave honest advice without any pressure or fluff.

I've been to plenty of other coin, currency, and bullion shops around South Carolina, and this place stands out by far. The selection is excellent, everything is clean and well-organized, and he has the best prices period. The owner clearly knows his stuff and runs a great shop with real integrity and an amazing team.

If you're in the Upstate or anywhere in SC looking for coins, currency, bullion, or jewelry, do yourself a favor and go see the owner at Clemson Coins. I was extremely impressed on my first visit and will definitely be back. Best in the state, hands down. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

JUST GO TO CLEMSON COINS! Hands down the BEST buyer for your jewelry & coins! I went to a few other places that were enroute to Clemson Coins, Currency & Bullion: let's just say I was offered between 20% and 40% melt value at the other places. Within 5 minutes and no goofing around with acid tests (they have an XRF machine) I was offered more than a reasonable percentage of melt value from Clemson Coins. Don't get GOT at the other places! Worth the drive from Charlotte, NC if that tells you anything! Honest people are hard to find! I won't go anywhere else from now on!
