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 MS67 PCGS grade

Jaime Hernandez:

The 1941-D Jefferson nickel is one of the more common dates with a large mintage of over 50 million coins struck for this issue. It is very common in circulated grades including up to MS63 grade. Examples in MS64 become a little harder to find but still easily available even by the rolls. In M65 condition still common but a little harder to find. In MS66 condition it becomes more difficult with many examples being graded. In MS67 condition it is very hard to come by with a few hundred examples available in this grade. In MS68 it is extremely difficult to find and PCGS has only graded one example in this grade with none being finer.
