<p>[QUOTE="sand, post: 7680416, member: 118540"]There are many ancient coins, and Byzantine coins, and ancient Chinese coins, with a dark green patina, that are more valuable, because of the dark green patina. Even a medium green patina can be highly desirable. Sometimes a light green color, means that the corrosion is active, but not always. One has to look at the coin, either in a photo, or in hand, to know, if the corrosion is active. If the entire coin is green, then the coin is usually more valuable, than if there are small green spots on the coin, if the 2 coins are otherwise equivalent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
