PNG Bestows Top Honor

Ron Drzewucki, a longtime dealer and president of CAC Grading, is the 2024 recipient of the Professional Numismatists Guild’s (PNG) Abe Kosoff Founders Award. The annual honor—the PNG’s highest—recognizes the recipient’s lifelong dedication to the community. The award is named after the PNG’s founding president, who spearheaded the organization’s 1955 launch. 

“I’ve been friends and doing business with Ron Drzewucki since 1990. [I’ve] personally witnessed his decades-long commitment to the hobby from his early days as a vest-pocket dealer to his leadership role as one of the top numismatists in the country,” says PNG Executive Director John Feigenbaum. “He has been a consistent flag-bearer of PNG’s ethical standards. To be a friend or business associate of Ron is to know you have someone you can always trust and depend on no matter the circumstances.”

PNG officials announced its top award and others during presentations on August 5 on the eve of the ANA’s World’s Fair of Money^® in Rosemont, Illinois.
