Bill,
I'm going to take new photos of the whole set soon, but Nick still has a number of them, so once I have the whole set back together, I'll get caught up on the photos.
In the meantime, I know this is early, but are y'all planning on FUN again next year? I am going to make it next year, and would really like to meet everyone in person. And maybe drag a few Roosies along for show and tell.
Dan

Thanks to Nick, I have added the only 68FT Roosie of the 1960's, a very nice 61-D to my set this morning! We know there are a couple 68*FT coins listed in the NGC POP reports from the 60's, but neither of those coins actually exist in those holders, as they were crossed at lower grades to PCGS years ago. So for now anyway, this is the only NGC 68 from the 60's.
On a side note, this addition put my 1946 to Date set over the 200,000 point level on the NGC Registry. I know it's just a number with no real significance, but it's been a goal I've been chasing since I registered my sets over here. Not sure if it's been done before, but sorta cool.
Enough blowing my own horn, thanks again Nick, and have a great week all!
Dan

Thanks Nick, two more star's and I will have the set. I wonder when I may find the 51D and 53D Any idea if anyone has an all "star" set anywhere on NGC?

Brian,
Working hard to get those last 2 for you. As to my knowledge no one has ever completed an all "star" silver Roosie set. I tried and never made it. Jim has come the closest to that accomplishment. I know with your commitment you will be the first. Your set now has the highest points ever achieved for a silver Roosie set and would rank as all time finest. I see your set breaking many records in the coming years.
I thought I would let you know that NGC has agreed to display my Roosie set at the June Long Beach Show. This is a great opportunity to promote OUR Roosies and NGC's star designation. As far as anyone knows, no one has every had a complete set of "star" designated coins. I'm hoping the 51D hits prior to the show so all 48 have the designation.
