ITEM 4. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On August 1, 2000, Collectible Concepts Group, Inc. ("Registrant") was
notified by letter that Rudolph, Palitz LLC had merged with McGladrey & Pullen,
LLP and that Rudolph, Palitz LLC would no longer be the auditor for the
Registrant. Such letter is included as Exhibit 1 to this form 8K. Thereafter,
McGladrey & Pullen, LLP was appointed as the Registrant's new auditor.
The auditor's reports from Rudolph, Palitz LLC for the Registrant's
past two fiscal years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of
opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or
accounting principles, except for an explanatory paragraph added with respect to
a going concern matter.
The decision to engage McGladrey & Pullen, LLP was not approved by the
board of directors.
During the Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent
interim period preceding the change, there have been no disagreements with
Rudolph, Palitz LLC on any matter or accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
The Registrant has requested Rudolph, Palitz LLC to furnish a letter
addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made
in this Item. Such letter is included as Exhibit 2 to this Form 8K.
