Thank you Gayle.
I have been asked many times to "turn on" my MS Roosie set(s) for view. It is close to perfection, and contains ten ms68s.
There are only 26 ms68s in the entire silver Roosie series and three are SMS, leaving only 23 ms68s in the entire set. Now, of those 23 ms68s, only sixteen dates are represented.
In other words the #1 Roosie set is only six coins from perfection, assuming that the next six 8s I get are dupes of dates where there is already an 8. Perhaps that even rivals Green's Kennedys (9 coins from perfection, I believe).
Thanks, Gayle. You are terrific.
PS. Look for the commems to also become viewable, shortly.

I hope you plan to eventually include pictures of the coins? Seeing a number is OK, but seeing the actual coin...well, that's really neat!

I dug up one from the past. This is the oldest Roosie thread I could find. I wonder how his #1 set would rank today???
Later, Paul.
Not very high I’m afraid. This was before FB designations. The set had some FB, but the bands weren’t necessarily a primary focus at the time.
This set was later combined with another great...
But that’s another story.
