I wonder if RickO could hide in a pile of Blast White coins... it can be our Where's RickO? version of Where's Waldo?

    I do believe they have a lot of snow where he is at, so he and his coins may be lost in the blizzard for awhile image

    I think the Roanoke coin might have put him into shock.

    That’s terrible news, RickO was great. My deepest sympathies to his family and friends. I’m very sad to read about this.

    The OP of this thread hasn't logged on in almost 4 years, so no chance to change the title.

    Maybe a new thread is in order.

    Oh no 😢

    What a bummer. I only met RickO once at a show in the Seattle area. Great guy and clearly a passionate collector. We will really miss you RickO.

    What an unfortunate loss. I always appreciated his comments when I posted coins. He was always a polite and kind person which is in such short supply these days. RIP.
