<p>[QUOTE=&quot;marbury518, post: 1185486, member: 24506&quot;]I saw a range of chinese coins for sale from a certain Spanish auction house</p><p>on Sixbid recently and noticed that the coins seemed to look either the same </p><p>patina, or washed out. Despite trusting this coin website, I was a little concerned.</p><p>Having asked this auction house about the coins in question they cobbled together a pathetic </p><p>sort of answer that essentially accepted that at least three of the coins have been cleaned </p><p>and they knew about it. I replied that this sort of selective and unfrank disclosure was disappointing. </p><p>They then held their hands-up and agreed with me. My point that as a professional teacher I am </p><p>held to account all the time by a range of stakeholders but the standard of openness and honestly </p><p>amongst these sellers often really just seems unacceptable. Why do I have to ask the right question </p><p>to get an honest answer. This does nothing for our hobby and fosters the notion of being predatory. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
