NGC Promotes Ben Wengel to Senior Vice President of World Coin Grading

Numismatic Guaranty Company® (NGC®), the world’s leading third-party coin grading service, announced the promotion of Ben Wengel to Senior Vice President of World Coin Grading.

Ben Wengel

Wengel began collecting at age 8. By 16, he had completed both the ANA Summer Seminar Advanced Grading course and a six-week summer internship at NGC. While attending the University of Tampa, Wengel worked at NGC three days a week, and after graduation he joined NGC on a full-time basis.

It was clear from the start that Wengel had a unique aptitude for attributing, authenticating and grading coins. A decade later, Wengel has firmly established himself as one of the industry’s foremost authorities on world coins. In 2023, he was the lead instructor of “Advanced Study of World Issues” at the ANA Summer Seminar in 2023 along with co-instructor NGC President Rick Montgomery, one of the world’s greatest coin authenticators in his own right.

Wengel has led numerous on-site grading events around the world, where he often gives presentations on authentication and grading. In addition to teaching, Wengel has written extensively on counterfeit detection for NGCcoin.com. He is also a passionate collector, whose personal interests include silver and gold coins from South and Central America.

“From guiding the next generation of graders to his contributions to world coin research, Ben Wengel has exemplified dedication to and expertise in numismatics. His elevation to Senior Vice President of World Coin Grading is a testament to his duty to excellence and leadership,” said Rick Montgomery, President of NGC.

“I am truly honored by this promotion and grateful for the opportunities that working at NGC has provided me to grow both personally and professionally within the world of numismatics. I look forward to continuing to uphold our commitment to the collecting community,” noted Wengel.
