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.

Jaime Hernandez:

The 1945-P Doubled Die Reverse is one of three different major Doubled Die coins in the Jefferson Nickel series. The three different Doubled Dies are the 1939 Doubled Die Reverse, 1943 Doubled Die Obverse and finally, the 1945 Doubled Die reverse.

The 1945 Doubled Die Reverse has the doubling on the words, MONTICELLO, and FIVE CENTS on the reverse of the coin. Its not as dramatic as the 1939 Doubled Die reverse but it is dramatic enough that it can be spotted with the naked eye.
