[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 1977731, member: 46237"]Some of my older NGC slabs are looking unattractive and are impairing the view of the coins. I've been considering sending them all in to re-holder with the scratch-resistant holders as well. I've heard good things about their clarity, but also that if they do get scratched they are impossible to buff out. Then again, if it's the same scratch resistant coating they put on glasses I think that would be pretty tough to scratch through regular use. I'm interested in hearing what people think of them. The thing that really turns me off about PCGS slabs are the labels. They are wholly unappealing and so ugly as to be a distraction. The background looks bad. The font and text spacing (both vertical and horizontal) look bad. The mixed font sizes look just awful. How hard is it to make an attractive looking label? NGC has been doing it for a while.[/QUOTE]
