Looking at the gorgeous pictures, I think I like the "TWENTY D." reverse better than the "TWENTY DOLLARS" reverse.
That said, I would gladly accept either coin as a birthday present!

Which one?
Either. It fits under the eagle better.

Are you planning to have provenance added to your collection at some point?
I would like to add Kaufman-Trompeter to the 1866 label at some point but as for my own label and logo, nah I’m not that important. I just love being able to own some of these treasures and share them!

I remember a thread a while ago about "legendary photos in numismatics". The OP photo of all three coins must certainly qualify.

I can only imagine some of the FFL label art if he draws inspiration from his career
Chopmarked Trade Dollar Registry Set --- US Gold Showcase --- World Gold Showcase --- World Chopmark Showcase
They certainly are stunning, and FFL frankly seems like a nice guy who both cherishes them and isn't full of himself. Thanks for sharing the images!

Whenever I see FFL post... I know it will contain some bangers!

Seeing those fantastic coins posted wasn't a shock, but that's only because of who started the thread.
I'll just repeat - fantastic.
