STACK'S BOWERS TO SELL JOHNSON COLLECTION
The collection of the late D. Wayne Johnson will be offered for sale this year. Here's a short announcement from Stack's Bowers Galleries. -Editor
Stack's Bowers Galleries is honored to be offering the D. Wayne Johnson (better known as Dick Johnson) Collection of art medals, coins, non-art medals, tokens, numismatic art, and assorted exonumia in a series of sales in 2024. Dick was a talented cataloger and numismatic historian who was a fixture in the world of art medals and the broader numismatic community for well over half a century. In addition, Dick cofounded the Rittenhouse Society in 1957 (a club of eminent numismatists that continues today) and was a founding editor of Coin World.
The first event will feature material produced by Tiffany & Co. to be held in April. Future sales will include material produced by the Medallic Art Company (a firm to which Johnson dedicated a good portion of his professional life), the U.S. Mint, and a range of other mints in the United States and around the world. The material offered reflects the breadth of Johnson's interests and professional experience. Stay tuned for more auction information!
Dick was also a longtime booster and contributor to The E-Sylum. We'll look forward to the sales!-Editor
