Numismatic Firsts

I know a couple of pretty serious collectors of "numismatic firsts". They collect things like 1792 half dismes (the first coin struck at the US Mint), 1965 clads (the first circulating clads), etc. How about posting an image of some other numismatic firsts?

I'll start with this one: The REAL first US clad coin. Silver on one side, copper on the other.

    The first PCGS sample slab (PCGS 1 on my website) had "0000" where the serial number would go. This kind is hard to find, although the later rattler samples with numbers for the serial # are much more common. Mine was a bargain for $50:
