An icon in Canadian Numismatics. Always had a smile. Enthusiastic about Canadian Colonial Tokens, Historical Medals, and Canadian Paper Money.

I will miss him. My condolences to his family and friends. RIP.

    Amen to that, Gene. He is sorely missed.

    I'm sad to hear that. I never met him but participated in a few of his auctions.

    Sad news, indeed.

    Geoff was a terrific guy and a stalwart of the Canadian numismatic hobby. I always appreciated how supportive he was of me and my work, but that was him in a nutshell. Geoff always had time to help out younger collectors and numismatists. I will miss him.
