Abbeville County's Highest-Paying Buyer
Just 35 minutes from Due West via SC-28 East, Clemson Coins in Pendleton is the most credentialed and highest-paying coin and gold dealer in the region. We pay full numismatic value on every piece we buy.
Due West was incorporated in 1840 in Abbeville County, though the settlement predates that formal recognition by several decades. The town's name has long been a subject of local curiosity, with theories ranging from a corruption of the Scots-Gaelic "Dhu West" to a simple directional reference marking the westward path from earlier settlements in the county. What is not in dispute is the town's defining institution: Erskine College, founded in 1839 by the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church, making it one of the oldest colleges in South Carolina. The ARP Church had established deep roots in the Abbeville County region in the late eighteenth century, drawing Scots-Irish Presbyterian settlers who brought with them a fierce commitment to education, faith, and community self-governance. Erskine gave Due West a character unlike any other small town in the SC Piedmont, attracting educated families, ministers, and professionals across nearly two centuries and creating a community where learning and Presbyterian tradition were inseparable from daily life. The families who settled around the college and stayed across generations accumulated wealth quietly and steadily, and the coins, gold, silver, and currency from that long accumulation continue to surface in Abbeville County estate sales today.
Through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries Due West remained a small college town shaped almost entirely by Erskine and the ARP community surrounding it. The broader Abbeville County economy of cotton farming and small-town commerce touched Due West as it touched every community in the region, but the college gave the town a stability and an educated professional class that set it apart from the purely agricultural communities nearby.
Today Due West is a quiet, close-knit community anchored by Erskine College, with a population that reflects generations of families connected to the institution and the ARP tradition. The town has no coin dealer with the credentials or buying power to properly serve the estate collections that surface regularly in Abbeville County, and sellers from Due West, Donalds, and the surrounding area make the 35-minute drive to Pendleton when they are ready to sell.
The educated, long-established families of Due West and Abbeville County deserve a buyer who understands what their collections actually contain and pays accordingly. Clemson Coins is PCGS, NGC, CAC, and CACG authorized, has the expertise to identify every key date and variety in a collection, and has the financial strength to purchase estates of any size the same day you walk in. Abbeville County estate attorneys refer clients to us because they know the difference between a credentialed numismatist and a gold buyer with a scale. Clemson Coins Pays The Most, ALWAYS!

Not all coin dealers are the same. Here is what you should look for before you walk in the door.
A reputable dealer will be authorized by the major grading services and industry organizations. At Clemson Coins, we are the only dealer in the region with all of the following authorizations:
Most coin dealers, pawn shops, and gold buyers pay only melt value, the raw metal content of your coin. A true numismatist knows that a 1916-D Mercury Dime, a 1921 pre-1964 silver dollar, or a 1909-S VDB Lincoln cent are worth far more than their face value and/or metal content alone. We pay numismatic premiums on coins that deserve them, and we have the expertise to recognize them.
You should never have to wait for your money. When you sell to Clemson Coins, you walk out with cash or check in hand the same day. There is no waiting, no mailing, and no uncertainty about when you will get paid.

Brought in a collection of silver dollars I inherited. Joe took the time to go through every single one, explained what each was worth, and gave me a fair offer on the spot. No pressure, no games. Walked out happy.

Stopped in with some gold coins and a few silver bars. Joe knew exactly what everything was without me having to explain a thing. Paid immediately, no waiting. This is the only place I'll go from now on.
Many customers have told us they visited a local buyer first, received a number, then drove to us and walked out with significantly more money. We hear that story every day.
