Abbeville County, SC

Abbeville is one of the most historically significant small cities in South Carolina, a place where the arc of American history bent sharply on two occasions separated by five years and a war. The city takes its name from Abbeville, France, reflecting the Huguenot heritage of some of the earliest European settlers in the region, and the county seat was formally established in the late eighteenth century as the Scots-Irish and English families who followed the Huguenots built a prosperous agricultural and commercial community in the SC Piedmont. John C. Calhoun, who would become one of the most consequential political figures in American history, studied law in Abbeville under the tutelage of William H. Crawford before embarking on his career as senator, secretary of war, vice president, and the foremost theorist of states' rights and nullification. The old Bank of Abbeville and the Abbeville National Bank issued significant currency during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and the national bank notes from those institutions are among the most sought-after pieces of South Carolina paper money. The antebellum planter families of Abbeville County accumulated extraordinary wealth in land, cotton, and coin, and the pre-1933 gold coins, early American silver, and estate jewelry from that era continue to surface in local estate sales. It was in Abbeville in November 1860 that the first organized secession meeting in South Carolina was held at the home of Armistead Burt, and it was in Abbeville in May 1865 that Confederate President Jefferson Davis held what is widely regarded as the last formal meeting of his cabinet, earning the city its enduring designation as both the cradle and the grave of the Confederacy.

Through the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries Abbeville developed as a prosperous county seat with a strong professional class of attorneys, physicians, merchants, and landowners whose families accumulated wealth across generations. The textile era brought mill employment to the surrounding county, and the combination of old planter wealth and working-class savings created a layered accumulation of coins and currency that reflects every era of American monetary history from the early Republic through the mid-twentieth century.

Today Abbeville is a small city with a rich architectural and cultural heritage, drawing visitors to its historic opera house and courthouse square while the longtime families of the county continue to settle estates and clear homes that have been in the same family for generations. The city has no active coin dealer with the credentials or buying power to properly serve those collections, and sellers from Abbeville, Due West, Donalds, and Calhoun Falls regularly make the 35-minute drive to Pendleton when they are ready to sell.

The depth of history in Abbeville County means the collections that come out of local estates are often extraordinary, containing Confederate currency, national bank notes from the old Abbeville National Bank, pre-1933 gold coins from the planter era, and silver accumulated across the full span of American coinage.
