PNG, founded in 1955, includes more than 350 rare coin and paper money dealers in the United States and seven other countries.<\/p>\n<p>Brush said his election marks a milestone in a career shaped by an early interest in the history of the coin business.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s truly an honor to be elected as the PNG President,&#8221; Brush said. &#8220;As a young numismatist, I was always interested in the history of the profession as a whole, and membership in the PNG seemed like something that would never be obtainable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He added that he is excited &#8220;to be able to follow in the footsteps of a literal \u2018Who\u2019s Who\u2019 within the coin profession.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>PNG Executive Director John Feigenbaum, who worked with Brush for decades at DLRC, said the new term comes at an important point for the organization.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s an exciting opportunity to reunite with \u2018JB,\u2019&#8221; Feigenbaum said. &#8220;His advancement to President of PNG comes at a very exciting time for the organization.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>PNG\u2019s officers are chosen from within its board. Under the organization\u2019s bylaws, member-dealers elect the board members at large, and the board then selects officers from among its members.<\/p>\n<p>Brush said he wants to build on PNG\u2019s recent efforts to expand its presence in a changing coin market.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;The PNG has taken major strides in the last four years to not only make the organization relevant, but to widen its reach into a growing numismatic marketplace,&#8221; Brush said. &#8220;I want to continue this welcome trend and see the organization grow in relevance and strength to continue its important mission to ensure integrity and confidence within the coin marketplace.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>He also pointed to generational change within the hobby and profession, noting the addition of younger members to the PNG board and broader growth in coin collecting.<\/p>\n<p>Brush described today\u2019s rare coin market as &#8220;a new frontier,&#8221; shaped by strong demand from advanced collectors, limited availability of high-quality coins, and new online live-selling platforms that are introducing coins to wider audiences.<\/p>\n<p>High-end material has become harder to source, he said, as collectors have been buying aggressively and holding better coins off the market. At the same time, he said, mid-range and lower-priced coins are seeing stronger activity as newer collectors enter the hobby through a wider mix of venues.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve heard many say that this is the best coin market they\u2019ve ever experienced, and I think it\u2019s safe to say that it\u2019s accurate for the current generation of coin dealers,&#8221; Brush said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) logo, 2025\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-107227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-680x680.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-240x240.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-696x696.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-420x420.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.coinnews.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Professional-Numismatists-Guild-PNG-logo-2025.jpg 798w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Along with his PNG role, Brush is a governor of the American Numismatic Association and a former chairman of the National Coin &amp; Bullion Association, formerly the Industry Council for Tangible Assets.<\/p>\n<p>Other PNG officers for the 2026-2028 term are Dustin Johnston, vice president; Jeff Garrett, treasurer; and Greg Allen, secretary.
