<hr><P><b>Comments:</b></p>I am please to read your article from the Jewelers of America on the proposed changes on the Platinum Section of Guides for the Jewelry, Precious Metals, and Pewter Industries.  


I strongly agree with the proposal to clarify the changes of the term “platinum”.  The more we jewelers are informed the better we can serve the public.  I look forward to any future information on this subject.


Respectfully,

A. Nefos
