CopperCoins exists because collectors shared knowledge, time, and coins. This page thanks those who helped build the dream—and lists everyone credited for sending coins photographed in the catalog.

Special thanks

  • Eric Beyer

    A great friend and a tireless worker when it comes to helping with the website. Photography, data entry, whatever it takes. One of the most valuable assets to this website I can imagine.
  • Dr. Brian Allen

    Now here's a guy who never hesitates to jump in and get his hands dirty when there is work to be done - literally. Everything from helping me with my coin knowledge and information to helping clean up from a hurricane with Eric and I, Brian has and always will be a truly treasured friend.
  • Bob Piazza

    Through thick and thin Bob was always there to do what he could to help keep coppercoins afloat when I was not able. He spent many tireless hours helping with the content of the website.
  • Ken Potter

    Ken is a mentor with no equal. He has been a fixture in the hobby for longer than I have been a collector, and I am forever grateful for his help any time I have needed a hand.
  • Alan Herbert

    *posthumous* - A great conversationalist and the most passionate coin educator I believe I have ever met. Alwqays there to lend a hand, "the Answer Guy" was always there to have a conversation with me about the progress of my work in the hobby.
  • John A. Wexler

    The "Great JAWS" was the first source of my information in die varieties and the man who led me to the water. I have never had a chance to thank him in person for all he did in my early days as a collector, so this is the best I can do. Thank you John.
  • Bill Fivaz

    The man who put a smile on the hobby. I cannot remember a time ever seeing Bill when he wasn't smiling and having fun with the hobby, I have always been honored to call him a friend and very powerful mentor.
  • J. T. Stanton

    *posthumous* - I remember him as always being that Southern Guy who could make anyone in the room feel welcome and listened to. Every time we were together in the same place, we would cut up and laugh til our ribs hurt. Forever missed and a wealth of numismatic knowledge; a truly wonderful guy.
  • Mickey Furr

    Mickey has been the cornerstone of my thinking for years now. He bounces my thoughts back in a way that makes sense, he asks the right questions as a beginner collector, and he helps me shape the projects I work on into a reality that I could never have done on my own. As a friend, as a collaborator, and as a volunteer I could not have come across a better gem.
