Here are my next two guesses. Hope we aen't allowed one per post. Sorry in advance.
1. Labels with urainium on/in them. It startedt in the 1800's, but, continues today in the glass industry. They add urainium to glass and it tints the glass to a yellowish color. When exposed to black light, it glows a bright green. This could help prevent counterfitting.
2. Imprinting all PCGS coins with DNA. This is done with baseballs along with hologram labels. This imprinting is non harming to the items, could have the PCGS serial number placed on them. When cracked out, this DNA could help in tracing the coins. What if your coins are stolen at a show, home, etc. The theif can break out the coins from the slabs and sell them raw. Or they can resubmit them to PCGS for recertification. When newly graded, they can be sold without tracing them right now. But with this new method, tracking is very possible. This can/has been very lucretive. Or, the coins are sold to a dealer. Since they are raw, the dealer knows no better. He sells the coin to a collector and they submit it to PCGS. Or he/she submits it to gain a huge profit. The DNA is invisable. Thusly, when presented to PCGS, a log is maintained. They can see the coins are stolen, alert the local authorities/FBI and an investigation is conducted. The theif is caught unknowingly by a mark. This is the same as Low Jack on a car in a way.

As in, each coin will be graded by a computer? PCGS does have a patent on this I think.

I gave up after about 300 posts, but has anyone suggested slabbing coin rolls? Perhaps they will use an X-Ray machine to determine what coins are in the roll, and what condition they are in? They would be slabbed in a very large slab, this called the "Big One"?

I think the change to the serial number on the slab adding 'additional information' may be a clue. Perhaps PCGS will be assigning a number to surface and strike like NGC ancients...
I see they took 3 full pages in the new Coin World for the "big announcement" I am sure the biggest thing on that day will still be my sons 16th birthday.

I KNOW I KNOW!! there going to have price guids for ALL WORLD COINS and not just U.S coins !?!?!?!?!? Would love to find out what my 2003 $10 gold NewZealand ONE RING coin is worth since they are limited to 1,300 world wide
After carefully analyzing the profitable collectible coin market, PCGS will now partner with HSN to 'colorize' any coin with a 'Genuine" designation for an additional low fee and include a special 'colorized' designation.
