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.

Gordon Wrubel: Quickfinder Notes: The Small Date has a FLAT TOP 1 and the date is arranged in a STRAIGHT LINE. The Large Date has PEAK TOP 1 and the digits CURVE around the contour of the rim. While neither variety is rare, PCGS Population figures show the Small Date to be about three times scarcer in total numbers graded. Mint State numbers show the Small Date to be about twice as scarce as The Large Date. However, high grade examples, MS-66, and 67, are available for both varieties. The Small Date even boasts a Top Pop MS-68!
