    If they'd just stop wearing THESE the problem would go away. It's all about education.

    Ebay never disappoints. I just did a search for "Rainbow" and here's the first result that showed up.

    It's a true "PAINBOW" beauty.

    that is what i usually get handed on the bourse when i solicit toners/toning along with huh?; as if no one in the history of numismatics has ever asked such a thing. image

    on the other hand, it is good customer service. when a customer asks you for something you either get them that, or that which is closest. image
