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.

Ron Guth:

The 1906-S Dime is semi-scarce and carries the biggest premium of any 1906-dated Dime. Nonetheless, collectors should have no problem finding a Mint State example since many dozens have been certified by PCGS in MS63 and better grades. Numerous Gem and Superb examples exist. The best ones top out at MS67. Virtually all of the highest-grade examples are toned to some degree, often in colors ranging from subtle to dazzling. Because the strike on the 1906-S Dime is usually strong, the biggest dilemma facing collectors is finding the most visually appealing example for the grade.
