A group of coin collectors are in Rock Hill this week for the International Coin Collectors Association show. The event runs through Friday at the Hampton Inn on Tarbor Drive near the Galleria, giving local folks a chance to browse the association's collection of vintage currency and sell their own treasures.
The collectors are looking for rare items such as coins and paper currency issued prior to 1965, gold items included class rings, mismatched earrings, broken necklaces, gold coins and bullion. The ICCA has recently uncovered some rare coins including a 1894S Barber dime that sold for a $1.9 million and a gold coin collection from a small town in North Carolina that went for $120,000.
