If the duplicate copies are issued by the competent authority, it will be treated at par with original.

There shall not be any difference but it shall be better if the copies of your application and the covering letter of university are kept intact for future reference if some one shows any doubt thereon.

Normally, duplicate certificates appear different from the original certificates. It will be stamped as duplicate and in many cases, it will be hand-written.
Duplicate certificates are as valid as the original ones.
In case of a government job, they verfy the contents of the certificate and not the appearance. So, not to worry.
