Rarity and Survival Estimates Learn More

Grades	Survival Estimate The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts' opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services.	Numismatic Rarity Numismatic Rarity converts the Survival Estimate for a particular coin into a number from 1 to 10 (with decimal increments) based on the PCGS Rarity Scale. The higher the number, the more rare the coin.	Relative Rarity By Type Relative Rarity By Type ranks the rarity of this coin with all other coins of this Type. Lower numbers indicate rarer coins.	Relative Rarity By Series Relative Rarity By Series ranks the rarity of this coin with all other coins of this Series. Lower numbers indicate rarer coins.

#1 MS67RD PCGS grade

Jaime Hernandez:

The 1948-D Lincoln Cent is very common in most grades. Examples in MS64 and lower are fairly common and very inexpensive, with many of them being out there in rolls or bags. In MS65 condition, they become a little harder to find but with enough searching in rolls or bags, examples can be found with minimal effort. In MS66 condition they are a little more difficult to come by but for a small premium, a nice MS66 example can be purchased for just a few dollars or less. In MS67 condition they become scarce, with less than a few hundred surviving and none known in better condition.
