Matte proof gold

Does anyone own any matte proof gold? I personally like the look of them better than brilliant proof finishes. The matte look seems to highlight the details of the coin more. Can anyone post some pictures?

    It's funny you mention it, because I was just thinking about matte proof gold last night. I don't care for it. I think it looks really weird.




    Now, if some kind older collector were to give me such a piece as a gift, I would most certainly graciously accept the coin...

    I don't have any of my own, but this stuff is awesome!
