<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Exodus_gear, post: 6483414, member: 35783&quot;]I forgot to add one more piece. In the same sense that different areas and dirt will create different variations of color in patina. It will also create different strengths of patina. I have had some coins with strong patina that even with small pressure they will not crack or chip and then I have had others where I can just look at it the wrong way and it will break apart. This doesn&#039;t mean you are necessarily doing anything wrong, it could just be weak. Do not let this discourage you and as Inspector43 said the more you work with them hands on the more experience you will get. You will be able to decipher this more easily.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
