He always impressed me.
RIP
what a loss. rip
He worked for me in Collectors Clearinghouse when he first came to Coin World in 1976 right out of Journalism School at Bowling Green State College in Ohio. Nice guy.
Rip 🙏
That’s terribly sad news about a numismatic stalwart. My prayers go out to all of Bill’s family and friends. Rest in peace, sir.

I saw this yesterday. Very sad news.
Sad news. I got to know him during a Pittsburgh tour at the 1989 ANA. He supplied me with quite a bit of information on the many Coin World medals and tokens that were issued. A very nice guy.
This one hurts
Bill was a fine gentleman
He will be missed
Enjoyed his writings. Condolences to all his fans,friends, and family.
I'm so sorry ... Life is too short !
Sorry to this new, my condolences to Mr. Gibb’s family and friends. I enjoyed his editorials.
I met him once when I attended the ANA summer seminar back 2013. Stayed in same housing unit. Really nice guy. My condolences.
I drove Bill up Pikes Peak that year.
