Ruben, That is a little harsh. I don't scorch the members of this forum hiding behind a psuedonym. My name is Paul and many of the other...
All of my registry sets are rainbow toned and 1880-S is a common date, so MS65* is not a really high grade for the date. Here is my registry...
Ruben, I am not a fan of people on the internet knowing my last name. I think that is pretty common. There are many, many bad people lurking....
