<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 1580706, member: 4626&quot;]Well decided to analyze the situation:</p><p><br /></p><p>CGA is in fact still in business.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.cganotes.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cganotes.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.cganotes.com/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>PCGS is obviously, and still grades currency.&nbsp; <a href="http://www.pcgscurrency.com/index.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.pcgscurrency.com/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcgscurrency.com/index.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>PMG is still in business (this is the currency grading arm of NGC).&nbsp; <a href="http://www.ngccoin.com/about/currency-grading-PMG.aspx" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ngccoin.com/about/currency-grading-PMG.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://www.ngccoin.com/about/currency-grading-PMG.aspx</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Other currency TPGs exist, but this seems to be the &quot;big 3&quot; as of right now.&nbsp; No other TPGs even made the first page in a google search.</p><p><br /></p><p>Not a scientific survey per se, but the first 200 eBay auctions of US paper money showed 48 graded notes.&nbsp; OK, so 98% ungraded may be overstating it.&nbsp; But still it looks like about 75% is ungraded.&nbsp; Shows that currency grading is nowhere as big as coin grading, but to be fair, currency collecting is nowhere as big as coin collecting either.</p><p><br /></p><p>Make of this what you will.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
