[QUOTE="SteveInTampa, post: 4249676, member: 27107"]PCGS Currency was opened in 2005 by Collectors Universe, owner of PCGS, with Jason W. Bradford named director.

Until the license ran out, PCGS Currency was operated by Bradford through his firm, K3B Inc. PCGS Currency (K3B) with Jason Bradford at the helm was once the darling of the paper money grading world with annual registry award ceremonies and many collectors competing within the registry. The last couple of years, before having the licensing agreement revoked, currency submissions were taking longer and longer to be returned, which is one of the reasons I believe the agreement was not renewed. Since then, many notes in older PCGS holders have been crossed to PMG and some have been sent to the new PCGS-Banknote grading service. The relevancy of the PCGS registry is in limbo, along with the accuracy of their population report.
