In preparing a COA, which aspect is least likely to be prioritized?

When preparing a Certificate of Authenticity (COA), the primary focus is often on aspects that ensure the authenticity and reliability of the item being certified, which includes completeness and sustainability, feasibility and acceptability, and distinguishability and suitability. Originality and creativity, while important in the context of the work itself, are less critical when specifically addressing the requirements of a COA.

A COA must provide verifiable information about the item's authenticity and its importance in terms of marketability, which relies more on how it can be presented, validated, and accepted within its field. The criteria surrounding completeness and sustainability, for instance, are about ensuring that all necessary information is captured and that it can remain valid over time. Similarly, feasibility and acceptability consider whether the COA can be properly administered and recognized by all parties involved. Distinguishability and suitability ensure that the item’s attributes are properly identified and applicable for its intended purpose.

In contrast, while originality and creativity can add value to an artwork or product, they do not directly influence the structural integrity and acceptance of the COA itself, thus making them less prioritized in this context.
