NGC and PMG meet a number of criteria for essential services according to Florida Executive Order 20-91, issued on April 1 by Governor DeSantis. The Executive Order specifically defines “essential services” to include, among many others, businesses that interact with customers electronically or by telephone and deliver products through the mail, manufacturing facilities, businesses that supply other essential businesses, and businesses that provide access to financial services, including non-bank financial services.
In addition to the enhanced cleaning and safety protocols previously instituted, including frequent cleanings of all work areas, NGC and PMG have taken the following immediate steps:
- All customer drop-offs and pick-ups at their Sarasota headquarters, including the recently implemented Contactless Curbside Pick-Ups and Drop-Offs, have been suspended. (Note: Under normal circumstances, customer drop-offs and pick-ups at NGC and PMG’s Sarasota headquarters are available to Authorized Dealers by appointment only due to security requirements.)
- Any additional employees who have been identified as being able to do a substantial portion of their work from home will be required to do so.

The coronavirus COVID-19 has already had a dramatic impact on the coin and paper money hobbies. Shows around the world have been cancelled, and virtually every dealer has already seen their business affected.
During this unprecedented situation, our thoughts are with our incredible global community of coin and paper money collectors and dealers. The coin and paper money markets are remarkably resilient and they will bounce back, as they always have when faced with challenges.
Now and in the future, NGC and PMG are here to help. All of our global offices remain open at full capacity, but with enhanced cleaning and safety procedures.
NGC and PMG have a large presence in China, and our comprehensive response to COVID-19 allowed our Shanghai and Hong Kong offices in China to remain fully operational for the last five weeks. We have implemented the same procedures at our other locations and continue to operate at full capacity.
