I read a message with his story and I want to say that he was a true leader in numismatics. I wonder if there are at least a dozen people with as much experience as Harvey Stack. Being a leader is a very difficult task, which is definitely not for everyone, because few people can handle a lot of responsibility and can effectively manage other people. I recommend reading https://samploon.com/free-essays/leadership/ to become more aware of the complexity of leadership in practical cases. I found this site when I had problems in college. Then it helped me a lot with writing texts and analyzing topics that I don't know well.
I really liked this excerpt from the description of his biography:
Harvey Stack’s role in numismatics was not purely business. He fought for clearer import regulations on coins from overseas and testified before a congressional subcommittee leading up to the Hobby Protection Act of 1973. He worked with the American Numismatic Association and other professionals in an effort to develop a standardized grading system for coins. In 1996 he appeared before the U.S. House Banking Committee to propose the 50 State Quarters Program, which brought countless new collectors into the hobby. Harvey Stack served on the board of the Professional Numismatists Guild for nearly a decade and acted as its president for two years beginning in 1989. In 1993 he received the PNG's Founder's Award, their highest honor, for his dedication to the hobby. Over the years, Harvey was a great supporter of the American Numismatic Association, the American Numismatic Society, and the Smithsonian Institution. He was a long-term member of the International Association of Professional Numismatists, as well as numerous other numismatic societies.
