This morning I went to the PCGS website and saw that they added new sets of Bitcoins. For example, they offer to collect "Casascius Bitcoins Brass and Gift Type Set, Circulation Strikes (2011)". I have already seen fancy banknotes, such as Arctic banknotes or Easter Island banknotes, priced by TPG. What do you think about it ?

Exonumia. (things associated with numismatics)
Some collect these 'non coin' objects.
I don't.

I think PCGS is looking for new sources of income.
If people want a group of coins/medals/etc. slabbed, PCGS will do it -- for a price.

PCGS is in business to not only evaluate money, but to make money. That's kinda how things work. Constantly looking for new revenue streams.
