    May she RIP. I adored her late brother too.

    She was not really a coin collector. She came to shows because of her close friend dealer Dwight Manley.

    Among her films, I enjoyed A League of Their Own the most. I am sorry to hear of her passing.

    Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?

    This part of the theme song has always stuck... “Schlemiel! Schlimazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated” ...do not know anything else but that.

    ...that was a funny ass lady right there! RIP

    Wow, I had no idea she was 75 years old. I never watched many sit-coms, but Laverne and Shirley was definitely one I watched when I was a kid.

    How very sad, thanks for the laughter in my youth.

    May she rest in peace. What a great comedienne she was! I remember how "estupido" I felt when I finally realized that the design on her sweaters and skirts was an L for Laverne! DUH>>>

    Never realised her age... Always thought she was timeless. RIP.

    Especially with a name like Penny she earns the accolades on a coin forum.
