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.

David Akers (1975/88): The 1914-D is the second most common branch mint issue after the 1910-D but it bears little or no resemblance to the 1910-D when it comes to rarity. In that respect, it is more closely associated with the 1909, 1914, and 1916-S although it is more rare than any of them in MS-64 or better condition. Virtually all known examples of this issue grade MS-63 or less, and true gems are almost never available. Kruthoffer's was by far the best I have seen and was nearly perfect.

The 1914-D is always fully frosty and very sharply struck. The surfaces have a trace of fine granularity but it is not generally as noticeable as it is on the other Denver Mint issues or even most Philadelphia Mint issues in the series. Lustre is usually good to very good and on the rarest of occasions (cf. the Duckor specimen) exceptional. Color is almost always the same, light greenish gold with rose highlights, but a very few have more orange shades.
