Paraguay 150 Guaranies KM# 65 1973 Proof variation?

2 posts in this topic

Bought this Mixteca Culture coin recently from MA-SHOPs:

It has the same large 1000 fineness stamped between the denomination characters as does the Paraguay 150 Guaranies KM# 36 1972 Proof.

However, another example from NumisMaster shows a much smaller fineness between the denomination characters for the coin:

Other than paying the variant fee, is there an actual advantage to creating a slab which documents the variant when the variant is so plainly visible and the normal coin so well documented?

Thanks.

The same variation can be found in the Paraguay 150 Guaranies KM# 37 1973 Proof.

This is a photo of the large purity:
