More Info

The Oldest Coin Shop in Charlotte

General Info
Hyatt Coin Shop was started in 1959 by William (Bill) E. Hyatt, retired Staff Sergeant of the U.S. Army. Coin collecting had been a passion of his, and his two sons Larry and Terry Hyatt would help him search bags and rolls as well as travel to the nation's capitol to pick up bags of Morgan Silver Dollars in the 1960's. The Hyatt Coin Shop was successful due to Bill's hard work and passion for the hobby, and soon began to expand. Part of the expansion of the store was due to the addition of other product lines - namely Firearms. In the purchase of a large coin collection that Bill Hyatt made, there were included some old Winchester Shotguns. After researching the guns and becoming interested in the history of Firearms, Bill obtained the necessary licenses to engage in the trade of firearms, and soon the business began to boom. Larry Hyatt, Bill's oldest son, came into the Coin & Gun business and took the business to much higher levels. Larry now runs the store, and Bill still frequently works in the coin department. Under Larry's management the store has expanded to over 200,000 square feet, and has become one of the largest gun stores on the east coast. The coin shop is still going strong, and Larry has enriched its inventory over the years, giving his customers a wide variety of coins to view and add to their collections. Terry Hyatt, the younger of Bill's two sons, worked in the store for quite a few years, specializing in military collectibles, before moving about an hour outside of Charlotte to run his father's Cattle Farm. Many fine military collectibles are still bought and sold at Hyatt Coin & Gun Shop. Larry's youngest son, Mitch Hyatt, has recently come into the business, and has renovated the coin department, expanding it to reflect the renewed interest in the hobby spurred by the Statehood Quarters and rising metals prices. Adding active Want Lists and some Consignments to the Coin Shop's list of activities, Mitch has created a more fluid coin shop where inventory rotates often and the coins desired by customers are quickly found. Mitch is a graduate of the American Numismatic Association's Grading and Counterfeit Detection programs, and can help you find the coins that meet the exact standards that you desire. ANA Life Member# L-3124159 The advent of the internet-age promises to bring more changes, and we look forward to serving you better with each visit to our store or website. One of the largest Coin Shops in the Carolinas, Hyatt's is able to purchase collections of all sizes, and the trio of Bill, Larry, and Mitch Hyatt have the expertise to accurately appraise all collections and pay top dollar to those interested in selling. Whether you are looking to buy, sell, or just learn about coins, we welcome the opportunity to serve you both here in our store and through our website.

A friendly staff who knew what they were talking about. I am brand new to black powder shooting and was loaded with questions. Not only did the guy waiting on me offer advice, but another salesman who overheard my questions come over and offer his expertise. As far as prices go they are about the same as other shops, some were even lower. My guess is the negative remarks were placed by folks who wouldn't be happy if they were hung with new rope. I'll be back

I was in Charlotte on the weekend of 30 March to attend the Viet Nam Veteran’s Homecoming Celebration at the speedway and had the opportunity to shop your store. I met Larry Hyatt who appraised two guns for me which I subsequently traded for a Kimber Pro Carry that has been on my wish list for quite some time. I have since fired my new Kimber and could not be happier with its function and accuracy. I wanted to thank Larry and his folks for a truly enjoyable visit and purchase experience. I was very impressed when I was invited inside the gunsmiths’ shop and given detailed guidance regarding the care and maintenance of my new Kimber. Everyone at the store was friendly, knowledgeable and sincerely helpful.

Contacted Hyatts by email about Law Enforcement pricing on a Glock 43. The LE sales rep. Brian said I was good to go, he just needed my state issued credentails, which I promptly emailed him. I placed my order, it was immediately cancelled. Called twice and was put on hold each time for more than 20 minutes. I explained my situation and both sales reps said someone would get in touch with me right away. They never called. After my 4th call I finally speak to a manager. He says he "cannot ship the gun to another dealer in my state because of the agreement with glock" ( His Law Enforcement sales rep. Knew I was in another state, and said it was no problem in his email) I asked if he could at least honor the price I was quoted on another Glock 43, not an LE gun. He said he would see and call me right back. Im sure I will never hear from him. I will keep dealing with BUDS. They have always treated me right when I bought guns through the first responders program. )

I have bought from Hyatts since 1968 when I first came home to NC. Larry has always been the friendliest and most knowledgable people I have met in all the gun stores in Charlotte NC....

Staff are knowledgeable and time helping you even though they are always busy. I've owed 5 pistols, 2 purchased from hyatts and I've always been satisfied. Best selection in the area by far.

These folks are still flipping amazing. This week, I bought my third firearm from Hyatt and this week, it was my third excellent experience. It helped that I kinda knew what I wanted, so when he brought it down from the display and I had my first chance to hold it and feel it and take a sight picture, it was a sale. My sales clerk was almost a little stunned when I said "Yep, I'll take it."
