<p>[QUOTE="Long Beard, post: 24898886, member: 108674"]To answer your question, and of my own opinion, absolutely not worth the premium over an identical coin of the same grade without. First, and foremost, as a collector each purchase is based on my eye appeal, not what someone else sees or thinks. That said, I have many PCGS and NGC's with at least a few of which would come back stickered. But again, why would I need anyone's confirmation on what I see? So I use what I save buying non-CAC towards others I'm lacking or interested in. What I'd like an answer to is this. Explain how accurate the grading is when viewed through hard plastic? Can you say with certainty that a rejected submission was only due to minute scratches on the encapsulation impeding such grading? Or glare? Afterall, they do not open the encapsulation for assessing the "grade".[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
