Drzewucki has said that leveraging technology and social media will be essential to furthering the mission of the PNG. Similarly, he will work to keep the organization at the cutting edge of ecommerce.

Drzewucki would gladly apply his forward-thinking methods toward accomplishing the larger goals of the PNG.

"I agree with the PNG that coin collecting is 'the world's greatest hobby.' I've been a PNG member since 1995 and a coin dealer and business owner for 12 years before that. My work has taken me across the country and connected me with nearly everyone involved in the coin business, both retail and wholesale," noted Drzewucki.

He continued: "Board membership is my opportunity to give back to a community that has given so much to me. My ultimate hope is to bring more people to the hobby, leaving the PNG stronger than ever."

In addition to being a business owner, Drzewucki has taught coin grading and counterfeit detection courses in the US. He is a frequent attendee of major conventions, lending his trained eye and wealth of expertise to fellow numismatists.

The Professional Numismatists Guild was founded in 1955. Today, the organization is the foremost representative of numismatists around the world. The PNG's mission is to protect and enhance the field of coin collecting through education and outreach.
