Watch out, it can be addictive. First you go after a nice white one and then your are drawn in by a nicely toned one, then you got get the very best super PQ toners like this one
I just recently started on the Roosevelt's too, think I'll work on the clads them move to the silvers. The sets I started are under postman. Bob (USN, Retired)
You should love this series. I started this series in January and only need 7 coins to complete a 67 FT set of both toned and untoned coins. There are many here that will help you.

That's amazing since there are about 7 coins that do not have 67FB yet! Which sets are yours? FRed
The nicest thing about Roosies (both silver and clad) is that it is so completeable in gem or choice gem. It gets much tougher with full torch but gems in this series are scarce enough to be fun and common enough they can be found. Other coins of this era tend to have a lot of very tough gems.
Jwillie33 is doing a silver set not a clad set. In fact he will only need 6 more coins to complete his set in 67FT (NGC) once he receives the 54D 67FT I'm holding for him. He just passed rainbowroosie and holds the #3 spot across the street. Here is JWillie33 Set
Welcome! The Roosies are a fun series. They're hard enough in FT to be a fun challenge. Yet, most of them are relatively inexpensive compared with, say, similar dates in the pennies. So it's completable.
Go to it -- and have fun!

Oh yes.......those are the tokens you use for bridge or ferry tolls......but remember, use those tarnished ones first and keep the pretty white ones.......Rainbowroosie knows best! And see Nick, he has plenty of pretty white ones too!

<< <i>I highly recommend you do a totally brilliant set in 67, FB if possible.
I prefer my coins blast white, but I've been known to pick up a toner here and there.
