That's one heck of a 58 HR! I've held off buying one because of the cost relative to the population, but I guess I need to look deeper.
Tough to narrow it down but here are some:

There are 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who do not.
I guess I will up you by a little.

Ha Ha, Your 66 clearly trumps my NGC64
No, it's an NGC MS-64 CAC. I was only "upping you" because the round sells for a more than the octagonal.
My octagonal coin is a PCGS MS-64, CAC, but it's not as nice.
Fooled me: Your PCGS64 Octagonal without question is nicer than my NGC64, and your NGC Round 64 looks significantly higher quality, I thought it was at least a 65 for sure. I guess that's the difference between a "A" and a "C" coin.
WOW! I'm jealous.
I love how a trump conversation is going on and then this just gets posted nonchalantly 😁
Paper money eventually returns to its intrinsic value. Zero. Voltaire. Ebay coinbowlllc
Throw a coin enough times, and suppose one day it lands on its edge.
Haha- Thought I could just slip these in all chill and what not…..
Here are some from my collection.
You said EARLY 20th Century, so here goes:

I love my commems, my gold coins, and I love my early Federal type coins, but the 20th Century type set is where I've had the most fun. It's accessible to almost anyone, but you can really look for stunners too. See my sigline for details about each coin:
@BryceM That is a truly awesome display of US coinage! That would be worth getting printed and framed!
@Eldorado9,
I will, if I ever decide to sell them. Until then, the set isn't done. There are three or four slots that I'll upgrade when the right coins come along.
A few of my widgets are in for reconsideration right now so these are some that aren't.

67FB...I think it should be 67+FB. Meh
67+FB
67+FB...I think it should be a 68FB but the obverse strike could be a little soft for their liking.
67+FB...Overgraded but the color isn't too bad.

There are some amazing coins in this thread and on this site. I love browsing through each day and looking at each and every one. So cool.

Now that's SCARY!
That type set is amazing thanks for sharing. After closer inspection of yours and the whole type set theory I realize that’s where I need to shift my focus. I love the idea of only having to produce one stellar coin per series.
Thank goodness you didn't want this one because of the toning.
Besides It's only a PF66+ CAC : )
PCGS PR63 CAC
Incredible coins gents! @emeraldATV as for yours, that's a swing and a miss, unless I am missing something hiding amongst the mold?
