>The usual reason polarizers are not multicoated is that there is so much 
reflection at the internal laminated surfaces, where the polarizer sheet 
is, that multicoating gives no improvement over monocoating! Additionally, 
multicoating may change the direction of polarization and thus reduces the 
polarizing effect of a polarizer. Many prominent filter producers do not 
use multicoating on their polarizing filters.<

i have several circular polarizing filters and my Hoya Multicoated one has
visibly less reflection at the glass surface and very little, if any,
visible reflection from the polarizing layer.
