The ROBLOX Music Video Award series is three trophy hats Roblox handed out in March 2009 to players who entered a music video contest, and all three are still tradeable Limiteds today. A Limited is an item Roblox stopped selling, so the only copies left are the ones players already own, and you get one by buying it from another player or trading for it. The Gold award is the scarce tier at 52 copies with a RAP of 791,776 Robux, the Silver sits at 241 copies and 164,740 Robux, and the Bronze is the common one at 878 copies and 70,340 Robux, using RBX Invest catalog data as of September 4, 2026.
Quick answer: The ROBLOX Music Video Award series is a Gold, Silver and Bronze trophy hat from the ROBLOX Rox Music Video Contest in early 2009. All three became Limiteds on January 7, 2010, and the Gold is the most valuable by a wide margin at 52 copies against 878 for the Bronze.

Rows run in the order traders actually value these hats, which here matches RAP order top to bottom. RAP means Recent Average Price, Roblox's smoothed average of what copies have sold for. "Cheapest listing" is the resale floor, the lowest price anyone is currently asking. All figures are RBX Invest catalog data as of September 4, 2026.
What is the ROBLOX Music Video Award series? Three 2009 contest trophies
Each award is a small statue worn on the head: a blocky Robloxian standing on a podium holding a guitar. The Gold figure holds a black and purple guitar, the Silver a red and black one, the Bronze a green one. Same pose, same podium, three finishes.
They are Classic Limiteds, meaning Roblox made them rather than a community creator. Classic Limiteds can be traded player to player and resold on the item's own catalog page, which is why these still have live prices seventeen years after the contest that produced them.
Roblox published all three on March 13, 2009 according to the Roblox Wiki's page on the award series, and our catalog stamps the asset creation a few hours later on March 14 UTC. None of them was ever sold for Robux. There is no release price to look up, because nobody could buy one. You either entered the contest or you did not.
The classic hats collection holds the rest of Roblox's own headwear, and the rarest Limiteds collection is where the Gold turns up.
How did players earn a Music Video Award? By entering a 2009 YouTube contest
The ROBLOX Rox Music Video Contest ran from February 27 to March 15, 2009. Players filmed music videos inside Roblox, uploaded them to YouTube, and the entries were ranked by view count. Roblox staff also picked their own favorites, with categories like Best Fight Scene and Most Rick-tastic, which tells you roughly how seriously anyone was taking it.
The prize tiers worked out to participation, popularity, and the very top. Everyone who entered got a Bronze. Entries that landed in the most-viewed list got a Silver. The handful of videos at the very top, plus the staff picks, earned a Gold. That structure is community-documented on the Roblox Wiki, and the wiki's own pages disagree about the exact view cutoffs, so treat the tiers as a shape rather than a rulebook. The original Roblox blog posts announcing the contest and its winners are long gone from the live site.
What matters for the market is what that structure did to supply. A participation prize goes to hundreds of people. A top-of-the-leaderboard prize goes to a few dozen. Seventeen years later, that single design decision is why one of these hats costs eleven times what another does.
Which Music Video Award is worth the most? The Gold, at 52 copies
The Gold ROBLOX Music Video Award has 52 copies, a RAP of 791,776 Robux, and 12,957 favorites on its item page. Its catalog description is still the original joke: "Awarded only to the MOST ROCKIN' music video production companies for outstanding achievement in the field of excellence."
Two numbers here need care. The first is that cheapest listing of 29,999,999 Robux. That is not a price, it is a hope. On a 52-copy item a seller can park a listing at any number and wait years, and nobody is obliged to meet it. The second is the RAP itself, which trader consensus puts well above 791,776. When almost nobody sells, the last recorded sales get old, and RAP drifts behind what a holder would actually accept. The real clearing price sits somewhere between the two, closer to consensus than to that listing.
The Gold is a gem, our word for a scarce, high-value Limited. Expect to negotiate through a trade rather than click a listing, and expect to wait.
Why is the Silver award cheaper than the Gold? 241 copies and a wider prize pool
The Silver ROBLOX Music Video Award has 241 copies, a RAP of 164,740 Robux and a resale floor of 300,000. Roughly five times as many copies as the Gold, and roughly a fifth of the price.
The favorite counts are the interesting part. Silver has 11,825 favorites against Gold's 12,957, so about the same number of players like the look of it. Supply is doing nearly all of the pricing work here, not demand. When two items from the same drop look nearly identical and one is five times scarcer, the scarce one absorbs almost all of the collector money.
Consensus values the Silver above its RAP too, though the gap is smaller than the Gold's. Its listing floor at 300,000 against a 164,740 RAP is the usual thin-market spread rather than a fantasy number.
Is the Bronze Music Video Award a cheap way into 2009 Roblox history? Yes, near 70,000 Robux
The Bronze ROBLOX Music Video Award has 878 copies, a RAP of 70,340 Robux, and a cheapest listing of 70,000. Those two numbers sitting on top of each other tell you something the Gold cannot: this item trades often enough that its RAP and its floor agree. You can buy one today at roughly what the market says it is worth, and you could sell one without a six-month search for a buyer.
For a collector who wants a genuine 2009 contest prize without gem money, the Bronze is the obvious entry. It is the same statue, the same contest, the same date on the item page. What it lacks is scarcity, and scarcity is the part you pay for.
Its description claims "Only 740 exist." Our catalog counts 878, which brings us to the odd part of this family.
Why do the descriptions list fewer copies than exist?
All three descriptions state a copy count, and all three are wrong today. Gold says 38 exist against 52 tracked. Silver says 237 against 241. Bronze says 740 against 878.
The straightforward explanation is that the descriptions were written for the original prize list and the supply moved afterward. The Roblox Wiki records staff handing out extra copies of the Gold over the years, to players whose accounts were compromised and to people who reported serious bugs, and notes that many of the original holders have since been terminated. That is community-documented lore rather than anything Roblox publishes, so treat the reasons as a strong lead and the counts in the table as the number that matters.
The practical lesson generalizes past this family. An item's description is marketing copy frozen in 2009. Live copy counts come from Roblox's current data, and when the two disagree, the live count is what you trade against. Our guide on what makes a Roblox Limited rare goes deeper on how supply is actually counted.
What links these awards to The Golden Robloxian?
The Golden Robloxian is the older cousin of this family: a July 2008 prize from Roblox's filmmaking contest, also a statue on a podium, with a sword instead of a guitar. The Roblox Wiki describes the Bronze award as a reworking of that hat with the guitar swapped in, which would make the Music Video Awards the sequel to that earlier movie-contest trophy.
The market treats them very differently. The Golden Robloxian has 47 copies and a RAP of 1,904,351 Robux, more than double the Gold award's RAP on a similar number of copies. Our Golden Robloxian history covers why, and the short version is age plus a smaller original prize pool.
What does it cost to resell a Music Video Award? Roblox keeps 30%
These are Roblox-created Limiteds, so a resale pays a 30% marketplace fee and you keep 70%. Sell a Bronze at 70,000 Robux and 49,000 lands in your account. The price also has to climb about 1.43 times what you paid before you break even, so a copy bought at 100,000 needs to sell near 143,000 just to get your Robux back. Community-created items split differently: Roblox's marketplace fee documentation sets the UGC Limited resale split at 50% to the reseller, 10% to the creator, 10% to the seller, and 30% to Roblox, so a UGC reseller keeps half.
Three rules to plan around before you buy one:
- Buying a classic Limited from a reseller starts a 7-day holding period, the waiting time before you are allowed to resell it. Receiving one in a trade starts a 2-day one. Our holding periods guide has the details.
- Trading needs an active Roblox Plus subscription on both accounts, and reselling needs one on the seller's account. Buying a resale copy needs no subscription at all.
- RAP is not a price you can get on demand. Read our RAP explainer before you value anything off it.
None of this is financial advice. Prices on thin items move in both directions, and the Gold in particular could sit unsold for a very long time.
Are the Music Video Awards worth buying in 2026? An honest read
The Bronze is the sane purchase. Seventy thousand Robux buys a 2009 contest prize with a tight spread between RAP and floor, which means you can leave when you want to. Liquidity is worth more than most beginners think.
The Silver is the interesting middle. 241 copies is genuinely scarce, the design is identical to the Gold at a fraction of the cost, and its floor sits at a spread you can argue with rather than a number invented to be ignored.
The Gold is a collector's item first. It trades rarely, its RAP understates it, and its lowest ask is decorative. If you want one, plan on a negotiated trade and a long search, not a purchase.
The honest risk across the family is attention. Award hats are quiet. They have no recolor line feeding new buyers, no event bringing them back into conversation, and no obvious hook for players who were not around in 2009. That quiet is also why the Bronze is still affordable. Watch how they move on the items leaderboard, and the Deals feed flags listings that fall below RAP, though it needs a signed-in account.

FAQ
What is the ROBLOX Music Video Award?
The ROBLOX Music Video Award is a set of three trophy hats, Gold, Silver and Bronze, that Roblox gave to players who entered the ROBLOX Rox Music Video Contest in early 2009. Each one is a small Robloxian statue holding a guitar on a podium. All three later became Limiteds and can still be bought and traded today.
How many Gold ROBLOX Music Video Awards exist?
52, in RBX Invest catalog data as of September 4, 2026. The item's own description says only 38 exist, which reflects the original prize list rather than current supply. The Silver has 241 copies and the Bronze has 878.
How much is the Gold ROBLOX Music Video Award worth?
Its RAP is 791,776 Robux as of September 4, 2026, and trader consensus values it well above that because the item almost never sells. The cheapest listing sits at 29,999,999 Robux, which is a seller's asking price on a 52-copy item rather than a market rate. A realistic price would need to be negotiated.
Can you still earn a ROBLOX Music Video Award?
No. The contest ran from February 27 to March 15, 2009 and was never repeated. Every copy in circulation traces back to that prize pool or to copies Roblox staff issued afterwards. The only way to get one now is to buy it from another player or trade for it.
When did the Music Video Awards become Limiteds?
January 7, 2010, according to the Roblox Wiki, which is about ten months after they were awarded. Before that they were prize hats you could own but not resell. Becoming Limited is what gave them a resale market and a RAP.
Which ROBLOX Music Video Award is cheapest?
The Bronze, at a 70,340 Robux RAP with a cheapest listing of 70,000. It went to everyone who entered the contest, so 878 copies exist against 52 Golds. It is the only one of the three whose RAP and resale floor sit close together, which makes it the easiest to buy and to sell.
Are the Music Video Awards related to The Golden Robloxian?
Yes, by design. The Golden Robloxian is a July 2008 prize from an earlier Roblox filmmaking contest, and the Roblox Wiki describes the Bronze award as a reworking of it with a guitar in place of its sword. The Golden Robloxian is rarer at 47 copies and carries a much higher RAP of 1,904,351 Robux.
How much Robux do you keep when you resell one?
You keep 70%. Roblox takes a 30% marketplace fee on resales of Roblox-created Limiteds, so a Bronze sold at 70,000 Robux pays you 49,000. That fee also means the price has to rise about 1.43 times your cost before you break even. Reselling requires an active Roblox Plus subscription on the seller's account.
