This is what I found when I looked up this piece. I think $165.00 + shipping would be fair.
52 3/4" x 7" x 1 5/8" east indian rosewood cost




A 52 3/4" x 7" x 1 5/8" piece of East Indian Rosewood contains roughly 4.16 board feet and typically costs between $165 and $290. The piece shown in your image features a highly desirable cathedrally figured cat-eye grain pattern, which usually pushes its value toward the higher end of that price spectrum.

Cost Breakdown and Factors
  • Volume Calculation: A 52.75" length × 7" width × 1.625" thickness equals 600 cubic inches, which is approximately 4.16 board feet.
  • Price Per Board Foot: High-grade specialty lumber yards retail East Indian Rosewood between $40 and $70 per board foot.
  • Premium Figuring: The pronounced, symmetrical cathedrals running down the center of this board make it highly sought after for furniture accents or musical instruments, commanding a price closer to $250 to $290.
  • Surface Condition: The board appears surfaced or planed flat on at least one face, saving labor costs and verifying its clean grain.

AI routinely overestimates the actual value of wood. Especially the more common rare woods.
 
This has turned into a gaging interest thread. Post the actual item and the price you want for it or I will remove this entire thread. @Manzanitaman learn to follow the rules.
 
@Manzanitaman can you get an end grain pic of the darker longer board too? I can have a look at things while mark takes a break. I don’t trust my ID skills as much as his but I would be happy to try.
