The county seat of Comanche County, Lawton was founded after President McKinley’s efforts to settle in lands formerly reserved for native tribes led to the federal partitioning of two million acres. The town is named for Major General Henry Lawton, the leader of the U.S. Army division that ran Apache rebel Geronimo to ground.
Today, Lawton still plays host to Fort Sill, the last remaining active military post of the series of installations built during the so-called Indian Wars. This Old West flavor can be found in another form, as well: the area’s collection of silver and gold shops.

A Lawton area pawn shop, Action Pawn has a wide selection of a variety of merchandise, including coins and other precious metal items. Being a pawn shop, their selection of coins will not be as deep or as specialized as a dedicated collector’s shop, with inventory varying greatly as items rotate in and out. However, part of the joy of collecting can be the thrill of the unexpected discovery, and time spent digging through the stocks of pawn shops can unearth treasures.
Action Pawn has been in business for over a decade and carries a wide stock; even if none of the coins currently in stock catches your eye, there may be other items of interest to you.
