[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 24814015, member: 59677"]Well of course they don't. PCGS Currency was licensed to use the PCGS name for about a decade, after PCGS stopped their initial note grading service. When the license ran out, they closed down PCGS Currency and opened Legacy Currency Grading ([URL]https://legacygrading.com/[/URL]). As they do not have rights to the "PCGS" name any more, they've carefully not mentioned the prior company except: "Legacy Currency Grading is an experienced and accurate grader in third party collectible paper money grading and authentication, grading more than 1,000,000 notes since 2005." Shortly after PCGS Currency closed down, Collector's Universe opened PCGS Banknote ([URL]https://www.pcgs.com/banknote[/URL]) in January 2020 ([URL]https://www.pcgs.com/news/pcgs-banknote-accepting-paper-money-submissions[/URL]).[/QUOTE]
