Selling coins in Woodstock, Georgia

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.

Wills and estates in Cherokee County go through the Cherokee County Probate Court in Canton. The estate's attorney or the court can tell you whether anything is needed before you sell.

For an estate, we'll drive up to two hours from Rockmart. Send photos and we'll talk it over.

Woodstock takes its name from Woodstock, Walter Scott's novel of 1826. Pioneers began to settle here in the early 1830s, on land that had been part of the Cherokee Nation.

The railroad and its depot arrived in 1879, and the village came to life around them. On December 8, 1897, the Georgia legislature granted Woodstock a charter as a city.

A new depot followed in 1912, a combined freight and passenger station that ran until the 1950s. Farmers shipped their cotton from it to mills far and wide.

Cotton brokers, bankers, blacksmiths and barbers lined the west side of Main Street, and the town's first mill, on Little River, made rope from the cotton. Dean's Drug Company, opened on Main Street in 1906, is the Woodstock Visitors Center today.

The Bank of Woodstock, a state bank, was open by 1905 and merged into Trust Company Bank in 1984. Woodstock had no national bank in the note-issuing years, 1863 to 1935, so no national bank note names the town.

Marietta, to the south, did have one: The First National Bank of Marietta, charter 3830, issued notes from the 1880s into the 1930s. We buy National Bank Notes from any town, along with silver certificates, red seal notes and other older U.S. currency.

Coins or old bills from a Woodstock family? Send photos of both sides and we'll take a look.
