Favor from the more tech savvy members finding an old thread

Many years (Aprox 2015) ago a member had a elderly neighbor or coworker if I recall who had some coins in a old purse that had been in the family for generation. They took the board along with them as they inspected them and most where what one would expect save for a 1850o gold dollar that was charming original. The 1850o is by far the rarest O mint gold dollar and they helped get it to great collections where it got graded. I ending up buying it all those years ago and would love to find the thread please. I have looked every way I can think of

Here's a start for you;
site:forums.collectors.com 1850 O purse
I have tried every search I can think of and then digging though pages of results, really hoping the author or somebody with a better memory recalls something I don't

Oh my
I tried a few searches on site and using Google. I did not find what you are looking for.
Coin sold on GC on February 08, 2015, so it would've had to have been before that.
Any specific information that you remember would be helpful (e.g., specific words and phrases that were used in the comments).
I tried scrolling down your comment page but it stops at January 2017, my finger hurts now.
Looks like there's related discussion at https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/comment/11112665 but the knowledgeable person with a link to the earlier thread has been removed. Not impossible the earlier thread discussing the purse has also disappeared.
Beat me by this much.
I think old threads on this board get archived in som way that makes them harder to find?
Did you post/react to the thread? Is it possible there's something in your history?

I wasn't going to sleep until this was solved.
Thanks everyone I have been looking for months. Not sure if I am more humbled by your efforts or humbled by how ineffective I was (maybe both) but thank you all.
Here is the coin

Great Coin Crypto, looks like a very wholesome example of a rarer piece of New Orleans Gold.
It's all about what the people want...
