Sending photos doesn't commit you to sell
Who buys coins in Acworth?
We do.
We buy coins and old paper money from sellers in Acworth and across Cobb County. Send photos and we'll talk it over.
1. Selling coins from Acworth
Acworth is about 30 miles from us in Rockmart. Send photos here on our website or on Facebook. Your town is enough to start.
Sending photos doesn't commit you to sell, and you can turn down any offer. If it makes sense to go further, we'll arrange a time and place to see the items in person. Offers are made after inspection.
- We never ask you to ship items or pay anything up front.
- For estates and large collections, we can come to you.
We pay cash.
2. What we buy, and what to send
Coins, silver, gold and old paper money, from a single piece to a whole collection, including Morgan and Peace dollars, proof and mint sets, graded coins, silver certificates and National Bank Notes.
Send a clear photo of both sides of each coin or note, the label of anything in a grading holder, your town and a few words about what you have. Don't clean anything. Cleaning can't be undone.
3. A stop on the state railroad
Acworth began as a water stop. The Western and Atlantic, the railroad the State of Georgia created in 1836 and owned, reached it in 1840, and a watering station for the locomotives was set up here.
In 1843 Joseph L. Gregg, an engineer on the line, named the place for his hometown of Acworth, New Hampshire. The town was incorporated on December 1, 1860, and John T. Cowan started a fine flour mill here in 1873.
On November 13, 1864, General W. T. Sherman's army burned the town, sparing 12 homes and one church. Three textile mills ran here from 1905 into the 1980s, with about 800 workers at their peak, and Lake Acworth was made in the 1950s beside Lake Allatoona.
4. Acworth's bank
Acworth's own bank was the Bank of Acworth, a state bank opened in 1905. In 1973 it became part of The First National Bank of Cobb County, the Marietta bank.
It was a state bank, not a national bank, so it issued no National Bank Notes. Nearby, The First National Bank of Marietta, charter 3830, issued notes with Marietta on them from 1887 into the 1930s. We buy National Bank Notes from any town, along with silver certificates, red seal notes and other older U.S. currency.
If you've inherited an Acworth family's coins or old bills, send photos of both sides and we'll take a look.
