<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BooksB4Coins, post: 2781993, member: 36230&quot;]If a coin is raw, disclosure is perfectly reasonable and something that should be done. However, if it has since been slabbed and straight graded, meaning it&#039;s been deemed &quot;market acceptable&quot;, doing so isn&#039;t necessary even if I personally feel it&#039;s still warranted.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coins change hands all the time, and if we lived in an ideal world where everyone had high moral standards, full disclosure would be the norm, but this isn&#039;t reality. Guy A could sell this coin, disclosing the conservation, to guy B who turns around and sells to guy C who doesn&#039;t say a word. Coins have been screwed with for generations, and there&#039;s simply no way of always knowing a coin&#039;s history. All that matters is what is it shows today; relying on such disclosures is a fool&#039;s errand, and is another example of how and why knowledge really is key.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
