    This antiquing process doesn't seem to be standardised.

    Is that why initial reactions to the coins were mixed?

    You missed a third option:

    Interest in both coins dies off over time.

    That's right... The 3rd and most likely option... Proof Coins release with some kind or buzz, the buzz wears off, then you get offered under spot when you or you family goes to sell 10 years later, taking a 300 loss not accounting for inflation

    Could be the golden ticket

    As with mine: #1xx range is silver, #12xx range is black.

    Somewhere between those ranges was a run of damaged, chipped coins.

    This is a great looking coin, so what if each coin has slightly different colour - doesn't it make the coin more interesting, also if you don't like what The Perth Mint is producing don't buy.
