Color is definitely important to me. See what you think of this coin:

I will note though that color is more important to me on business strikes than proof coins, because blazing, brilliant colors are so much more common on early proofs than on business strikes.

Color to me is great, but I will not pay extra for it in most cases.. unless it really takes my eye.... But color can help some average coins look nicer...
