Long-time dealer Bob Koppelman died of a heart attack two days ago at the age of 67. In the early 80's, Bob and his partner at NIOF handled superb type coins and other rarities. While much less active in later years, he kept up his connections with many. He will be remembered for his knowledge and his rather mordant sense of humor. He leaves no family.

Finest Toned Ike I've Ever Seen, been looking since 1986
As mentioned, he was a presence at coin shows back then,
and he had a warm personality, and a good sense of humor.
I hadn't talked to him in probably 10+ years, but I'll miss him.
