If museums want to cash in using an alternative currency they would be better suiting thinking about social gaming, virtual goods and making their collections available for exchange there.

You can check out passes for a certain number of visitors to 25 or so museums in your local community. It's not local currency exactly, but it's an interesting voucher admission program that has upped attendance and provided access to museums.
