<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fretboard, post: 910130, member: 19765&quot;]I remember back when I first started posting on this forum and there was one person who posted on here who artificially toned coins and didn&#039;t see anything wrong with it.&nbsp; He&#039;s long gone as most true coin collectors do see something wrong with it and stay away from obvious coin doctoring and my guess is (this forum) got lonely for him.&nbsp; Anyways, finally the PNG has some words on the subject.&nbsp; Add comments, if you feel like!&nbsp; Part of what the PNG said was; &quot;unconscionable practice of &quot;doctoring&quot; is an enormous detriment to the&nbsp; numismatic marketplace&quot;...&nbsp; Oh and I even included part of the embarrassing for PNG.&nbsp; Anyone?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.coinnews.net/2010/06/03/png-applauds-efforts-to-battle-coin-doctoring-monitors-suit/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+CoinNewsnet+%28CoinNews.net%27s+Numismatic+News%29&amp;utm_content=Yahoo!+Mail" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinnews.net/2010/06/03/png-applauds-efforts-to-battle-coin-doctoring-monitors-suit/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+CoinNewsnet+%28CoinNews.net%27s+Numismatic+News%29&amp;utm_content=Yahoo!+Mail" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinnews.net/2010/06/03/png-applauds-efforts-to-battle-coin-doctoring-monitors-suit/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=Feed:+CoinNewsnet+(CoinNews.net's+Numismatic+News)&amp;utm_content=Yahoo!+Mail</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>(Long Beach, California) — The Board of Directors of the Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) met in Long Beach, California on June 2, 2010 and issued the following statement.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Professional Numismatists Guild Board of Directors applauds the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) in its efforts to battle the deceptive practice known as coin &quot;doctoring.&quot; The deliberate, deceitful alteration of a coin can pose an egregious financial consequence to individual collectors, investors, dealers as well as the general public.
