A side-shoot of this... PMG has announced a crossover program for re-holdering PCGS-holdered notes in PMG holders. Quote:
PMG will remove the notes from their PCGS Currency holders only if PMG believes that the notes will meet or exceed PMG's standards for the grades assigned by PCGS Currency. |

Interesting. A lot of them will not cross based on my experience. But I wonder, how will PMG assess paper quality through the holder?

However, due to the possibility that notes may have issues that are hidden by the holder (such as pressing), PMG cannot guarantee that PCGS Currency notes submitted for CrossOver will not receive a lower grade with PMG. By submitting for CrossOver service, the submitter agrees that PMG shall have no liability in the unlikely event that it removes a PCGS Currency-graded note from its holder and the note subsequently receives a lower grade or no grade with PMG.

But I wonder, how will PMG assess paper quality through the holder? Short answer is they can't. Long answer is the above quote. |

Legacy Currency Grading will be a start-up with built in advantages. They plan on integrating their existing PCGS-C pop report and registry sets along with their written guarantee. They also have decided on using a fully sealed holder, which should end the age old debate over to breathe or not to breathe.

Now over 2 weeks since the announcement, still nothing more than a tombstone website  |

Right, you'd think they would have been ahead of this curve.

Nearly 3 months since this was announced, but I haven't seen any news on progress. Did Legacy ever actually get launched?

I frequent a different forum with a Legacy Grading thread that's up over 900 posts last time I looked.

I tend to stay away from that one. It's a little long on opinions and short on facts for me  I did take a look at the thread you mention after posting this earlier, and it pretty much confirmed my opinion of it, but I did see that Jason was at Central States and did show a sample holder (I couldn't see the photos of it since I'm not a member of that forum ). Even so, there was still considerable discussion as to whether or not Legacy Currency Grading was a viable entity or not  It didn't seem like anyone had much factual information, but most had a lot of speculation  |
