At least 700 I'd think too. The hassle is finding other drums to match.
If I collected Rogers I'd consider getting it just because there'll never be another in that pristine finish.
It's in the " try and find another one that nice" zone!

OK. The comments here do not touch on what would be very cool to do with this orphan 13" tom. The shell could be cut in half to make two piccolo 13" snare drums with a second row of lugs pointing to the new edge 4 or 4.5 inches away from the other edge. This Slingerland drum is an example of what I'm suggesting.
No matter how far you push the envelope, it is still stationery.

I'm guessing the comments don't touch on that because this is a site that promotes saving vintage drums. I would never recommend cutting a pristine Rogers tom in half. One that's in bad shape but salvageable, sure. One that's in players condition, maybe. But that rare beauty? Nope. It's even wearing its original batter, for crying out loud.

Have to respectfully disagree. I like original no matter what it is -
