GSA Grading aesthetic question

How much do the PCGS plastic over plastic take away or hinder in the appearance of GSA CC Morgans?
To be honest I have never seen one in hand.

    Can't tell you that there is any monetary advantage, but there certainly is storage advantage with NGC grading as you can keep them in their original boxes with certs.

    Thanks Bob
    Thats an important aspect but I was wondering more on the look.
    To be honest though I think you've convinced me.

    The PCGS holders for encased GSA dollars are large and bulky, but they don't hinder the enjoyment of the CC through the case. I've viewed plenty of them in hand and have had no negative thoughts on viewing the coin.

    With that being said, I prefer the NGC certification all day long since as previously mentioned, they can still be contained in the original packaging.

    Like anything plastic can be scratched, so a few years of bourse handling and I'd bet those bulky PCGS holders would be a hinderance to coin viewing.
