I dealt with Jay for nearly 30 years both buying & selling and we'd joke around at every show.
I asked him last year after 50 years in the biz if he still enjoyed hitting the road to do shows and he said he still loved every minute.
I'll miss seeing him at shows!
Really a huge hit for anyone working on the series as you could amass the SLQ's of every other dealer on the brouse floor and still not duplicate the inventory in Jay's cases.
I am saddened and hope his family realizes how much he gave in so many ways. A gentleman and a lost talent in our hobby.

I am not a huge slq fan, but this same friend. Him and I about 3 years ago were attending Baltimore, I saw a really nice 16 SLQ in 58. Was about to purchase it went a nice 63FH caught my attention. it was quite expensive , some 7k more than the 58. I told my self If I didn't buy the 63, then I would regret it, even though I would have been happy with the 58. So I got my friend to buy the 58 and I bought the 63fh.
Funny thing is my friend is a worth 100x more than I am, and this was the first time he ever spent more than 10k on a coin.
