Images of the 1885-O morgan I got today

I got this 1885-O morgan today and was so pleased. This morgan was part of a promotion back in 1967 by Tidy house. The man I bought it from had kept it in the cardboard insert and envelope since he bought in 67. The toning is so cool and the strike is awesome. Better than my photos could get. I mean you can see every tail feather and detail. I am sorry the images are not great because I can only post the limit allowed here. But it is an awesome coin.image

I should have taken it out of the 2x2 before I took the pictures. Here is the envelope it came in image

    Nice coin MSD.
    I alway see the Kennedy's in those Tidy House cardboards and one day i'll place a bid. Some have the same toning like yours shows.
    Congrats

    We picked up one of those off eBay as well, complete with the mailing envelope and brochure. Did you read the prices on the brochure?

    Here is the coin, came back from NGC as a 63:

    When I placed my bid on it I had no idea what this really was or even what the heck "tidy house" was. I just wish the image came out better. I may just remove it from the mylar and try againimage
