nope......but the people I sell to do.

I agree it doesn't have any numismatic value but, it most certainly has a marketing value

I just find it amazing that PCGS, the self-described "collectors friend," is providing this designation.

No. Personally, I've never understood the fascination with slabbing bullion coins at all, but certainly everyone should have the right to collect (and slab) as they please . - Preussen

I don't really care, although if I had FS AGE's I might care more if I could make a big rip from it.

Bottom line is you're going to have the holder as long as you have the coin. And since the FS holder is more eye pleasing I don't see the problem. I also don't see premiums paid for FS coins. I just picked up a $50 gold Buffalo (FS) graded MS69 for $650 which is basically at bullion. I got the coin, the holder and I didn't have to pay the grading service. So where is all this talk about paying premiums for FS coins originating? The only premiums I see are people paying $1200 for MS70 Buffalos which I can't understand. They're paying for the higher grade....not the FS designation.
