R.I.P. Samuel Kaeppel

I learned today that coin dealer Samuel Kaeppel of Greenfield, MA passed away last Saturday. He was a great friend of mine. He attended all of the local shows in MA, NH, ME, and NY and many of the national shows.
I met Sam early on when I started going to my local shows in 2015. I had even enjoyed sharing a table with him at the Bay State coin show the past few years. He was a character to say the least, had a laugh that could be heard from anywhere in the room, and always had great stories. Especially, about the 1955 double die cents and how many he had bought and sold over the years.
He will be missed. R.I.P. Sammy!
