I voted for modern silver because that's all I collect now.

I notice zinc isn't on the list

Yea, I do apologize for excluding some metals but I did not want to over crowd the options.

I voted no preference.

I have a couple of gold coins on my wish list (a Florentine florin dateable to a year I don't already have, and a Charles V type), but I have far more silver. There''s just more variety.

I would never vote iron or zinc, but I have parted with some gorgeous aluminum coins because they no longer fit my themes.

Whatever the heck Florentine bronze is, I doubt it belongs on a list of "compositions."

It is an alloy that has an aged bronze look to it. Why, I put it on is because Numstia considers it a composition.
