    I picked up 5 of these for $250 recently. I didn't know what they were at first because their tops are cut where it says tidy house probably for storage sone time ago. This one is an 81s that I think I'll be getting slabbed before it goes terminal. It's gorgeous in hand and in pics. The mirrors go to about 6"+ but hard to pic with only 2 hands and through the toning :D 20151023_090740_opt.jpg 20151023_090807_opt.jpg 20151023_072814_opt.jpg 20151023_072737_opt.jpg 20151023_091518_opt.jpg 20151023_093627_opt.jpg 20151023_093725_opt.jpg 20151023_073307_opt.jpg 20151023_073334_opt.jpg

    Seems like a good deal on some nice Morgans. For some reason I'm thinking about going to get a few hamburgers.

    A good representation of the mirrors should have the coin 6" away from the object, not right next to it.

    Thanks chris, I haven't photograph mirrors much and it's hard especially through the color. Even the reverse has a thin film devolping. I can read the words fine at 6" but when I try to set up a pic it's it's blurry. I do have to work on this

    I bought one of these Tidy House, toned Morgans' off eBay a couple of years ago. The toning was very subdued. I turned around and sold it for a slight loss. I was pretty disappointed.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    Tidy House Morgans are well known, and quite collectible. They are well known for their attractive blue colors. Its unfortunate that the tops were cut off the holders though - in good condition, the holders are collectible as well.
