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:

This is the first year of issue and the first Roosevelt Dime struck at the Denver Mint. This year the Mint struck a little over 340 million coins between the Philadelphia, Denver and San Francisco Mints combined.

Most of the 1946- D Dimes are not considered scarce in circulated grades including up to MS64 grade. Only in MS65 grade and higher do they begin to be somewhat scarce but yet, still easy to find with most of them being raw. Since they don't command a premium in grades of MS65 and lower, most coins are still raw. In MS66 grade they become a bit tougher some of them are still raw but many of them may now be in holders. In MS67 grade they are very tough, possibly no more than 300 examples exist in this grade or higher.
