Ex Gerald Schertz. The surfaces, while virtually free of contact marks, feature a wonderful morass of die breaks and clash marks. Only a peacock might aspire to the range of iridescent colors that grab and hold the viewer’s eye. Keith purchased the coin from me in June 1994; it was part of the nearly complete die variety set of Dr. Gerald Schertz, BHNC #45. “Jerry” was a keen student of numismatics as well as the people, places, and cultures of planet Earth. He was also a close friend. We often traveled to exotic lands, including the Australian Outback, Antarctica, the Selous and Serengeti in Tanzania, Papua New Guinea and India. He was a brilliant medical oncologist, practicing in Roanoke, VA. Jerry died in November 2013, age 67. He was struck by a car while crossing the street after attending patients in the hospital. His passing was a tragedy for his wife, son, daughter and all who knew him.Est. $4,000 to $5,000.
