Poll Question
This is a poll to see what color you like your coins in. This also includes silvering because that counts as a sort of "patina".

Poll Choices
 Black, desert patina
 Green patina
 Smooth brown patina
 Blue patina (not BD)
 Silvering
 Red patina

I really love desert patina. It makes the coin pop if cleaned properly in a way that no other patina can match, IMO.

Also, before I voted I clicked the 'See Results' button to see what others think. Now I can not vote in the poll? Is there a way to cast my vote or am I locked out? Is there a way to fix this problem?

The old Syrian red is a nice one. The white desert patina too.

You get many many patinas. Many. And I dont have a favourite - silvering is often really nice, but can be really messy too.

Any nice patina that covers the entire coin is nice, but if I had to choose I like the smooth brown patina the best.

I'm probably the only one who doesn't really like sand patina. I love black and almost black patina though, and dark brown and dark green as well.

Very subtle green patina especially on a good quality sestertius of Nero. You would pay $thousands for such a coin.

I like them all as long as the patina is intact and attractive:)
