Gold Panda, OGP or capsule

[mr1030]

I recently bought my first gold panda, a 2013 1 oz.  I've bought silver pandas in OGP capsules before, but this is the first time I've dealt with one in the sealed soft plastic.  My question for those of you that have more experience with gold pandas is would you leave it in the soft plastic or put it in an airtite?  Does the OGP soft plastic hold up well?  And at time of re-sell, do buyers prefer the OGP?

I would leave it in the OMP. And only take it out when you decide to grade it with NGC or PCGS.

I have the same question for years , only recently decided to take them out from omp , and get them graded, still no sure it’s a right move or not

I think it depends if they are something you'll look at and enjoy or tuck away for years.  Being in a capsule makes them look nicer and of course you can open up too.  Plastic sleeves just look cheap.  On the other hand if keeping for collectors of the future, let them make that decision and keep it original.

Think about if you sell in the future.         If you send for grading doesn’t matter because it’s graded.       If selling as a raw coin I’d be a lot more interested in one in omp,  proves that it’s not a grading reject.     Think will have more of a market if left

Thanks for the input.  Was mainly concerned if the soft plastic these were sealed in would hold up over time as I Gollum my precious over the years.  I do like to examine my shiny's now and then.
