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.

The 1963-P Roosevelt Dime is really common in most grades as over 120 million of them were struck. Only in gem condition does it become scarce, especially with Full Bands. In MS66 condition there are still thousands that survive with many of them already being graded. In MS67 without Full Bands they are much scarcer with less than a couple hundred known. And in MS67 with Full Bands they are truly scarce with less than a dozen known.
