Roblox created 90 Limiteds in 2017, and together they hold 16,351,944 Robux of combined RAP today. A Limited is an item Roblox stopped selling once a fixed number of copies had gone out, which is what lets owners resell and trade those copies afterwards. RAP, short for recent average price, is Roblox's smoothed running average of an item's whole sale history. The year's highest RAP belongs to the White Sparkle Time Fedora, sold on 3 September 2017 for 100,000 Robux, with 306 copies minted and a RAP of 3,958,209 R$ today.
Quick answer: Roblox's 2017 Limiteds number 90 items holding 16,351,944 Robux of combined RAP, half the 181 items 2016 produced. Hats carry 15,414,634 R$ of that, about 94% of the year. The 12 items minted in runs of 200 copies or fewer hold 9,476,310 R$, roughly 58% of everything 2017 made, and November alone accounts for 8,346,839 R$ after the Black Friday drops.

What were Roblox's 2017 Limiteds? 90 items, every one made by Roblox
Every 2017 Limited lists Roblox as its creator. Community-made Limiteds, the ones traders call UGC Limiteds, only arrived in April 2023, so the whole year sits in classic Limited territory. Roblox's marketplace documentation states that only Roblox-created Limiteds are tradeable, so any 2017 hat you own can go into a player-to-player trade. Trading needs an active Roblox Plus subscription on both accounts.
Hats carried the year almost entirely. 47 of the 90 are hats and they hold 15,414,634 R$, about 94% of the year's RAP. The rest spreads thin: 13 faces, 10 back accessories, 7 face accessories, 6 neck accessories, 3 waist accessories, 2 shoulder accessories, 1 gear item and 1 front accessory, nine item slots in total. If you want to browse the surviving hats with live prices, the classic hats collection ranks all of them.
Treat the 13 faces carefully. Roblox replaced its classic 2D face Limiteds with animated versions in early 2026 and face values fell hard afterwards. Several of 2017's faces, including Blue Goof and Golden Bling Braces, now come back from Roblox's own catalog as dynamic head bundles. Read our coverage of the decline in face Limited values before you treat any 2017 face RAP as solid, and the classic faces collection for where they sit now.
How this article dates an item
Items here are grouped by the date Roblox created the asset, which is the date traders use for a hat's year. Two of the year's valuable items went on sale much later than that. The Disgraced Baroness of the Federation was built alongside its male counterpart in November 2017 but, according to the Roblox Wiki's catalog records, did not go on sale until the Presidents' Day 2019 sale. The Immortal Sword: Celtic Blade carries a March 2017 asset date and sold in March 2018 for St. Patrick's Day. Asset age and sale date drift apart often enough that it is worth checking both, which our guide to asset ids and item age covers in detail.
Why did Roblox make half as many Limiteds in 2017? Big stock, short timers
2017 is where classic Limited output falls off a cliff. The counts of Limiteds Roblox created per year run 233 in 2014, 194 in 2015, 181 in 2016, then 90 in 2017. Output never recovered: 106 in 2018, 41 in 2019, 10 in 2020.
What changed was how the drops worked. Through 2017 most of the important items were limited uniques sold behind a countdown. Roblox posted a stock number, opened the item for a window of an hour, a day or two days, and whatever went unsold in that window never got minted at all. The White Sparkle Time Fedora was listed with stock of 5,000 copies on a two-hour timer and sold 306. The Sparkle Time Valkyrie had 100 in stock on a two-day timer and sold 94. The Disgraced Baron of the Federation had 100 in stock on a 24-hour timer and sold 66. Chronobonum: The Blessed Helm had 100 in stock on a 24-hour timer and sold 55. Those are the community-documented stock and timer figures from the Roblox Wiki, and they explain why 2017's copy counts land on odd numbers like 306, 94, 66 and 55 instead of a clean 100.
For traders that mechanic produced something useful. Several 2017 items are rarer than Roblox ever intended, because demand on the day decided the print run. Our explainer on timed options and sale windows walks through how those drops were scheduled.
Two bunchings carry the year. November produced 20 of the 90 items and 8,346,839 R$ of RAP, about 51% of everything, around the Black Friday 2017 sale. June produced 10 items and 2,070,057 R$. August produced 8 items and 3,977,416 R$, almost all of it the White Sparkle Time Fedora.
Which 2017 Roblox Limiteds are worth the most today? The Sparkle Time Valkyrie leads
The table below is ordered by trader consensus on what each item actually changes hands for, which on thin markets is a better guide than RAP. Copies is the total ever minted. Lowest ask is the cheapest copy listed on the resale market right now, which on items this scarce is usually far above RAP because nobody holding one is in a hurry.
| Item | Copies | RAP (R$) | Lowest ask (R$) | Went on sale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 Sparkle Time Valkyrie |
94 | 2,580,879 | 20,000,000 | 19 Nov 2017 |
 Disgraced Baron of the Federation |
66 | 1,352,361 | 10,999,999 | 19 Nov 2017 |
 White Sparkle Time Fedora |
306 | 3,958,209 | 7,840,000 | 3 Sep 2017 |
 Red Void Star |
184 | 3,021,738 | 4,800,000 | 25 Nov 2017 |
 Archduchess of the Federation |

 Disgraced Baroness of the Federation |
236 | 995,032 | 9,999,999,999 | 18 Feb 2019 |
 Neon Pink Crazy Crown |
100 | 181,298 | 3,333,333 | 4 Feb 2017 |
 Chronobonum: The Blessed Helm |
55 | 153,675 | 6,000,000 | 9 Dec 2017 |
 Frozen Dragon Soul Hood |
65 | 399,894 | 100,000,000 | 28 May 2017 |
 Immortal Sword: Celtic Blade |
100 | 284,614 | 730,000 | 16 Mar 2018 |
Compare that order against the RAP column and the gaps jump out. By RAP the White Sparkle Time Fedora leads the year, yet traders rank the Sparkle Time Valkyrie above it. The Neon Pink Crazy Crown sits seventh on consensus with a RAP of 181,298 R$, ahead of the Frozen Dragon Soul Hood at 399,894 R$. Both gaps come from the same cause: on an item with 55 to 100 copies, months can pass between sales, so RAP keeps quoting a price from a market that has moved on. Our explainer on what RAP measures covers the formula and how slowly it reacts.
That 9,999,999,999 R$ ask on the Disgraced Baroness is a real listing, and it is the owner's way of saying the copy is not for sale. You will see those placeholder numbers across the thinnest classic prints; we wrote about Limiteds listed for billions separately.
The White Sparkle Time Fedora: the last one Roblox made
The White Sparkle Time Fedora went up for the Labor Day 2017 sale at 100,000 Robux, the eleventh entry in a run that began with the original yellow version in December 2007. It is also the last one Roblox itself ever made. Every Sparkle Time Fedora in our catalog after 2017 comes from a community creator, and most of those trade under 500 Robux.
Its print run is the thing to understand. Every earlier color came out with roughly 100 copies: the Sky Blue Sparkle Time Fedora from 2016 minted 101 and carries a RAP of 5,504,176 R$ today. The White minted 306, triple the supply, and sits at 3,958,209 R$. Three times the copies at a lower RAP is the clearest supply lesson the series offers. The Sparkle Time collection ranks the whole family live, and our Sparkle Time series history tells the line's full story alongside the wider fedora collection.
The Sparkle Time Valkyrie: the priciest item Roblox ever sold
The Sparkle Time Valkyrie launched on 19 November 2017 at 250,000 Robux with 100 copies in stock and a two-day timer. 94 sold. The Roblox Wiki records that price as the highest any limited unique ever launched at, and the most expensive item the Roblox account has sold. It is the fifth Valkyrie helm and a Sparkle Time retexture of the original, which puts it at the intersection of the two most watched classic families on the platform.
94 copies against the original Valkyrie Helm and its 12,523 copies is the whole reason this hat prices where it does. The Valkyrie collection tracks every helm by live price, and our Valkyrie Helm history covers the family from Clockwork's original onward.
What were 2017's biggest print runs? Back Axe Guitar at 339,861 copies
The year's other half is enormous, cheap and slot-filling. 62 of the 90 items minted 1,000 copies or more, and the five largest prints alone account for 701,821 of the 1,462,995 copies the year produced.
| Item | Copies | RAP (R$) | Lowest ask (R$) | Launch price (R$) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 Back Axe Guitar |
339,861 | 688 | 749 | 250 |
 Master of Disguise Mustache |
167,766 | 799 | 799 | 100 |
 Black Iron Commando |
94,129 | 4,025 | 4,100 | 50 |
 Blue Goof |
50,038 | 2,033 | 2,185 | 100 |
 Red Goof |
50,027 | 2,399 | 2,355 | 100 |
Those asks sit within a few percent of RAP, which is what a liquid market looks like: plenty of sellers, steady buyers, a price that barely moves. The Black Iron Commando is the standout, up from a 50 R$ launch to a 4,025 R$ RAP across 94,129 copies, which is unusual for a print that size.
Print size sorts the year into three bands. 12 items minted 200 copies or fewer and hold 9,476,310 R$ between them, about 58% of 2017's whole RAP. 62 items minted 1,000 copies or more and hold 629,366 R$, under 4%. The 16 items in the middle, with runs between 201 and 999 copies, hold the remaining 6,246,268 R$, including the White Sparkle Time Fedora and the WC Ultimates hats. If you want the scarce end, the Limiteds under 100 copies collection is where 2017's gems sit, a gem being a scarce, high-value Limited that traders treat as a store of value. The cheap end lives in Limiteds under 1,000 Robux.
Are 2017 Roblox Limiteds worth buying now? Only at the thin end, and slowly
The useful part of 2017 is small. A dozen hats with prints between 55 and 236 copies, most of them Sparkle Time or Federation variants, carry nearly all the value, and those are the ones that reward patience. The big prints behave like currency: liquid, close to RAP, almost no upside beyond the spread.
Three things to keep in mind on the scarce end.
Liquidity is the real constraint. On a 55-copy hat you may wait weeks for a seller and weeks again for a buyer. The lowest ask is what you can buy at today, and the RAP is what the last sale did, so budget from the ask.
The fees bite on exit. A classic Limited resale carries a 30% marketplace fee, so you keep 70% of what you sell for. Selling a copy at 4,000,000 R$ nets 2,800,000 R$, which means a resale has to clear about 1.43 times what you paid before you are ahead. Trading has no such fee, which is why the scarce classics mostly move by trade. Our marketplace fees explainer runs the full arithmetic.
Holding periods lock you in briefly. A classic Limited you buy on the resale market cannot be resold for 7 days, and one you receive in a trade is locked for 2 days. See holding periods for the full set of rules.
To watch any of these live, the items leaderboard sorts every Limited by RAP, value and growth, the deals feed flags copies listed below RAP as they appear, and the reseller tools price the copies you already own. If you want the year before this one, read Roblox Limiteds of 2016.
None of this is financial advice. Limiteds are virtual items, a thin market can leave you holding a copy nobody wants at your price, and RAP on a 55-copy hat can be months stale.

FAQ
How many Limiteds did Roblox make in 2017?
Roblox created 90 Limiteds in 2017, down from 181 in 2016 and 194 in 2015. They hold 16,351,944 Robux of combined RAP today, and 47 of the 90 are hats.
What is the most valuable Roblox Limited from 2017?
The Sparkle Time Valkyrie is the most valuable by trader consensus, with 94 copies and a lowest ask of 20,000,000 R$. By RAP alone the White Sparkle Time Fedora leads the year at 3,958,209 R$ across 306 copies.
Was the White Sparkle Time Fedora the last Sparkle Time Fedora?
Yes, it is the last one Roblox itself made. It sold on 3 September 2017 for the Labor Day sale at 100,000 Robux. Every Sparkle Time Fedora in our catalog after 2017 is a community-made UGC Limited homage, and most of those trade under 500 Robux.
Why do 2017 Limiteds have odd copy counts like 306 and 94?
Because 2017's drops ran on a clock. Roblox posted a stock number and a window of one hour to two days, and anything unsold when the timer ended was never minted. The White Sparkle Time Fedora was listed with stock of 5,000 and sold 306 in two hours.
Can you trade 2017 Roblox Limiteds?
Yes. Every 2017 Limited was made by Roblox, and Roblox's marketplace documentation states that only Roblox-created Limiteds are tradeable. Both accounts in a trade need an active Roblox Plus subscription, and an item received in a trade is locked for 2 days.
Why is one 2017 Limited listed for 9,999,999,999 Robux?
That ask on the Disgraced Baroness of the Federation is a placeholder from an owner who does not want to sell. Listing at an absurd number keeps the copy visible in the catalog without anyone buying it, and it is common across the thinnest classic prints.
How much do you keep when you resell a 2017 Limited?
You keep 70% of the sale price, because a classic Limited resale carries a 30% marketplace fee. A copy sold at 4,000,000 R$ nets 2,800,000 R$, so a resale needs to clear roughly 1.43 times your purchase price to break even.
Which 2017 Limited has the most copies?
The Back Axe Guitar, with 339,861 copies minted. It launched at 250 Robux and carries a RAP of 688 R$, with the cheapest copy listed at 749 R$. The five largest 2017 prints account for 701,821 of the 1,462,995 copies the year produced.
