# pmg-cert — PMG banknote certificate verification

Verifies PMG certs against https://www.pmgnotes.com/certlookup/<cert>/<grade>/ (Firecrawl render of the Cloudflare-challenged public page). Like NGC, the holder grade is part of the URL — seeds are cert/grade (8067968-054/67); a wrong or missing grade yields zero records.

• Output: catalog_item (note description, grade 67 + EPQ qualifier, identifiers.pick_number + pmg_cert, region, grade date, serial number / signatures / comments in metadata, images) + partial population_report from "Total Graded by PMG: In 67EPQ: n / In Higher Grades: m".
