I have some English Pennies and I want them to have that aged look. I want them to have that look with patina. I can't find fake patina in my area.

You won't live long enough if you bury them in your back yard. It takes 100's of years and you need the right minerals in the soil. Put them in a window with a lot of sun for a month or so and just tone them. Put them in a coin envelope that has sulfur in it or newspaper will do.

How old are your pennies? English or British? From the 1700s,1800s,1900s? Toning on copper coins will look differently depending on age and state of preservation. I advice you leave your coins alone. If you still want to age your coppers or bronzes, then you can try those gun bluing substances. I've heard, that they produce results.
