I have been trying to get this done for 2 years now.
Here is an abstract from the PCGS website:

“Under the agreement PCGS will grade selected examples of the mint’s new commemorative and bullion issues, such as the gold Kiwi bullion coins, and will establish a submission center at the mint in Auckland, New Zealand for the convenience of local collectors and dealers to submit coins for PCGS certification.”

The interesting part is the “establishement of a submission center at the mint in Auckland, to submit coins for PCGS certification.
Nobody on the phone at the NZ mint knows what I am talking about when I make an enquiry to have a US coin submitted for grading.

If you aren’t a citizen of NZ you are not allowed to buy coins? There are beautiful sets not being collected or graded because of this policy. Perhaps this could be eased to accomodate outside bidders. PayPal is now accepted worldwide.
