Harrison’s death was announced Monday morning on the Gold & Silver Pawn Facebook page.
The announcement said Harrison “was surrounded by loving family this past weekend and went peacefully.”
We are deeply saddened by the loss of our friend Richard ‘The Old Man’ Harrison, a beloved member of the HISTORY and @pawnstars family. He will be greatly missed for his wisdom and candor.

Harrison, scaled back his “Pawn Stars” appearances about a year ago.
“It was a third career I’d never even imagined: military then real estate then TV star,” he told the Review-Journal through a publicist in January. As for what he’s enjoying most about his semiretirement, Harrison said, “spending more time with my wife and grandkids,” before joking, “and not working with Corey, Chum (Austin Russell) and Rick (Harrison, his son) every day.”

I was fortunate meet "The Old Man" several times before the show got too big and the cast could not work on the floor because if the commotion they cause.
He was a very nice man to my son and I and told me a lot about collecting coins.
RIP sir and prayers for the family and friends.
