Not too early to start FUN planning for Roosie guys. Thursday evening at my room, bring your best red wine. Jim has earmarked an Opus One, Nick is a Caymus Select, and I have something very special planned. Then we stagger across the street to the Capital Grille to eat like kings. Sound like a plan? Anyone else want to join in?
2009 Opus One from me and can't wait to see my roosie friends. I might even bring a Caymus 40th Anniversary bottle. If you like Pinot Noir, how about a #1 Evening Land? Hope I can make it back to my room...
Can't find ur room if ya don't tell us where ur staying?
This is a raw coin I picked up for my 7070 type set, but I wanted to share it since it's the best roosie I have. Hope you enjoy! I'm still a little shady on photos, but I'm learning more and more each time I set up to take new photos.

I can't believe the 1975-P 68FB just went for $6,366! That is mad money, and yes it's a Pop 1/0 but. . . wow.
Well did ya get it???
I'm not the type of person to self-advertise a win like that, though I wish like hell I had won it! The value's just not there at that price point, IMHO - the person who got it obviously thinks differently.
Seeing as this is a Roosie string, does anyone remember a very early graded 59p in 68, I keep thinking Teketrade sold it a long time ago. If so, does it still exist? Also, was there a 57d in a 68 rattler holder? Again, if so, does anyone know where it is? A picture of either would be wonderful.

Been looking at a lot of Roosies & can’t help but notice there seems to be a lot of 46-S in 67FB & 67+FB with attractive color.
Anyone know why this year and mintmark seems to be plentiful in high grade color?
I'm not really sure what the answer is, but I can tell you it is one of the most plentiful dates/MM's in the entire silver series bursting with vivid colors. I personally now own 12 of these in 66FB and higher, all wonderfully toned. Here are 2 that I really like.
Since some of you have inquired beforehand, a quick heads up that I've decided to break apart my 'Stellar' collection (#7, '46-'64) and the first batch (including the rainbow '57-P 66+FB) is available on Justin's site:
Fee . . . . . . . . . . Insurance Coverage
$1.65 ................ $0.01 to $50
$2.05 ................ $50.01 to $100
$2.45 ................ $100.01 to $200
$4.60 ................ $200.01 to $300
$5.50 ................ $300.01 to $400
$6.40 ................ $400.01 to $500
$7.30……………$500.01 to $600
$7.30 plus $0.90 per $100 or fraction thereof over $600 to $5,000.
So, insurance would cost about $10.00. Plus about $7.50 or so for a priority mail shipment- yes? So, the $18.00 fee appears “spot on” if the coin sells for over $801. The shipping cost would be higher or lower if the coin sells for more or less than the $801-$900 range. Agreed? I think I understand the rates now.
So, I like monsters... it appears you calling out Justin on the $18 shipping fee is based upon your belief that the coin is worth substantially less than $800? Yes?
Wondercoin.
Edited to add... oops ..
It appears rates on insurance may have recently gone up. It now costs $11.75 to insure $801+. Looks like Justin can only cover $700 or so in insurance for that $18 shipping fee.

John, That just means all your pop 1/0 clads just went way up in value.

Not me, Mitch. If anybody finds out where it lands please let the rest of us know.

The searches will be super charged👍
We need some pictures to spice it up some. So, show off your BLUE Roosies, just love the blue's:

Nick,
Not the coin you're thinking about. This one is in an NGC old holder graded MS67. Planning on submitting...hope it hits 68+*
Nice Roosies guy's!!!
Nick, I think this is the coin you're thinking about?
Those are some sweet Roosies!!!
Can't even touch the Roosies you all have in your set's. Here is my newest:

It’s location in albums. That corner usually toned very nicely.
rainbowroosie April 1, 2003
Say what?
Very interesting - thanks
Given how many are on eBay and DLR, etc...it seems like seller asking prices are a little high at $300+?

MS66FB

MS67FB FS-502

Later, Paul.
Someone just made a 1947P MS68FB pop 1/0. Anyone know who or where the coin is.
I still can't believe not a single MS69FB has been made in the silver series, let alone not another 8+FB. I thought by now we'd see 1 of these hit.
Later, Paul.
Now a pop 1/0 1062D just got made too. Paul I would bet a couple more 68+FB's get made with in a few months.
How often do you check the pop reports? Is it every day?
Later, Paul.
No..... Come on. I check them at least 3 times a day😉
Big difference in images from GC auction last night
The other image is a true view, but keeps saying the host needs to approve the post first
Decent price for 55-sFb? Thoughts
What did it sell for? I missed it
Here is the true view from my previous post
Not sure , I thought the asking prices was high though. ~1500

Just realized that should have gone on the BST board - sorry!!!

I like monsters...
Just curious since I do no shipping myself and you appear to be familiar with this area...
If a coin sells for, say, $850 on eBay and seller ships it to you priority mail insured for $850... what is the cost of that shipping?
Wondercoin.
Oh... I was just made aware of this table...
UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE
INSURANCE FEE RATES
Fee . . . . . . . . . . Insurance Coverage
$1.65 ................ $0.01 to $50
$2.05 ................ $50.01 to $100
$2.45 ................ $100.01 to $200
$4.60 ................ $200.01 to $300
$5.50 ................ $300.01 to $400
$6.40 ................ $400.01 to $500
$7.30……………$500.01 to $600
$7.30 plus $0.90 per $100 or fraction thereof over $600 to $5,000.

Some very nice MS67+ coins in the set as well.

John, it's OK to offer coins here on the registry forum if they are registry quality and yours definitely qualify as quality.
Congrats Nick on your 3,000 post! I have a riddle for you.
"Then there was one"
Post your answer here.
