    Why don't you blog about something that interests you?  I occasionally write in my journal here pretty much exclusively about national bank notes.  We have Zimbabwe very well covered with Revenant and Ukraine with Fentucky Mike. What do you collect??

    I collect mainly US Nationals, but no hundreds to date.  I also collect US Type and fancy SNs and Canadian notes.

    Just 4 off from a radar.  I'd bid it up to about $10 if it were at auction.  Nice they gave it a grade.

    They both seem to have the lower transmittance that is the hallmark (IMO) of the old gen, green tint holders...
    Not sample holders, but the following two images were made at basically the same time using the same imaging method (cheap scanner) and the old gen holder image is just so much darker.

    I was pretty sure but it was a little harder to tell on the Philippine note. So glad they were able to improve the holder and get rid of the tint.
    I do remember PMG launching the "Gen 4" earlier this year but it seems like it was more of a label and sticker (hologram) change than anything. I'm not sure if the holder is Gen 4 or if the label is, or both?  https://www.pmgnotes.com/news/article/8221/new-pmg-label-and-holder/
    The Gen 3 was launched in late March of 2016  https://www.pmgnotes.com/news/article/5201/PMG-Launches-New-Clearer-Holder/ 
    The Gen 2 was launched back on January 3, 2011 https://www.pmgnotes.com/news/article/1918/Second-Generation-Holder/ 
    Regardless, they still have a description of the PMG holder (with an image of a holder with the new label) listing the current holder/label as "Introduced in 2016, the third-generation PMG holder" which if correct would mean the current holder is still Gen 3 and the label is Gen 4? Maybe?

    I won a sample note from PMG back when they ran a trivia contest for members (yes, those were the good 'ole days).  It was a Malaysia, Bank Negara Pick #51 1 Ringgit ND (2012) PMG Unc Sample PMG Collectors Society Trivia Contest SN AG6140428 PMG 1528092-028 Sign. Z.A. Aziz, - Polymer Note
    I don't have a pic to post (Sorry), but it's at least one generation removed from the current PMG holder.  It is the only sample holder in my collection.  If there's a massive groundswell of demand (i.e. 5 likes on this post ought to represent a groundswell around here), I'll dig it out and post a pic.

    No image available on Verify PMG Certification, well done.
    Trivia contest or the like could be fun around here, guess the grade, real or fake, etc. Just for bragging rights and the education.
