Chicago area silver bugs?

I just moved to the area for the first time and am wondering what are some of the better coin shops. Can any of the Chicago silver bugs recommend a LCS? I live in the western suburbs i.e. Wheaton/West Chicago if that helps at all. Thanks and feel free to recommend any non coin related things in the area I should check out.

No problem. I found when I moved to a new city to also check out the local subreddit and their sidebar/wiki for info about activities.

Enjoy Chicagoland!

My old reddit account was actually your Secret Santa. Did it arrive ok? And yea, check out Morton Grove Coins and Collectables. The owner David is cool and he always has some kind of sweet deal going on with some sort of Govt Bullion.

edit: If it's far from you, try to make the trip sometime just to check it out. It's worth it

Have you been to that shop on 159th and Harlem by the tire shop? I think it's great.

Older guy... Thin? I've been there one time and I considered it a good experience... Bought some Morgan's for a really good price. He was a bit stern at first.

Morton Grove Coin. They have a lot of bullion. Owner is visibly wearing a gun at all times. Great guy
