Outstand toned Morgan in promotional cardboard

poptopsRus · November 24, 2004 3:42AM

Check out the toning on this great 1883 Morgan. It came into the shop in this promotional carboard sleeve which obviously caused the toning. In addition there were a pair of 1964 Kennedys in a simular cardboard holder with nice toning too.

Very nice!

Cool !! Does the promo card have a date on it ?

poptopsRus · November 24, 2004 3:49AM

Sorry no date on the card but what do you expect from Tidy House Products Co.

Russ · November 24, 2004 3:49AM

Tidy House! That's a VERY nicely toned one. Most are dull and/or rather ugly.

Hi,
judging from the aging of the cardboard, the font (and the text on the holder

) it must be after 1964 as it states silver coins are not being minted anymore. My guess is very shortly thereafter - maybe 1965-67 (Tidy was sold in 1968...)?

Best,
Billy aka Lt. Columbo

PS - GORGEOUS! I'd keep it in that holder - are you going to?

poptopsRus · November 24, 2004 3:53AM

These don't come in very often but I love it when they do!

magikbilly · November 24, 2004 3:59AM

Hi,
I was wondering - as this is from 1965-67 which was a good era for product commercialism etc. what other proprietary brand "housed" dollars etc. you have seen? This sort of reminds me of the earlier irradiated 10c.

Best,
Billy

Are you going to keep it in the cardboard?

Here's one from Bankers Trust:

I haven't decided what to do with this yet, as I've only owned it for about 15 minutes. Most of the promotional cardboard holders I see have been from banks given out to people when they open an account. Some tone nicely while others fugly.

Damn you russ you beat me to the bank holders

Reading the promotion at the bottom was fun.

magikbilly · November 24, 2004 4:19AM

Hi,
Russ - that is just BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Best,

You told them they were tarnished and paid melt for them?

No actually they had a bunch of morgans just loose but I gave them a good premium for the purdy one

I bought four Tidy House Kennedies at an auction earlier this year that had gorgeous rainbows. A fellow board member purchased them from me.

Nobody collects those do they????

Let me know if you get anymore just in case though

poptopsRus · November 24, 2004 6:06AM

Yeah somebody already talked me out of the Kennedys, sight unseen even. Can you guess who

Bought one of these in the cardboard at a local shop about a year ago . . monochromatic blue, with a grade of no better than 62-3, but pretty nonetheless. Haven't learned how to post pix, but when I do . . .

Great to learn more info on Tidy House from the Boards . . .

Thanks for the order form, K6AZ. That's less than I usually pay for Morgans. Can't wait for them to get here. Seriously, that's pretty cool.
