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.

Jaime Hernandez:

The proof Washington Quarter series began in 1950 and quarters from this year had a mintage of about 51,000. As the years went on mintages increased significantly year by year. By 1954 the Mint struck a little over 233,000 proof quarters, making it a more common issue if compared to the first years that Washington Quarters were produced. By the early 1960's the Mint started producing over 3 million coins each year, making proof Washington quarters much more common.

The 1954 Proof Washington Quarter is not considered scarce but it is very popular amongst Washington Silver Quarter collectors. Most examples are easily affordable, unless collectors want an example in high grades with Cameo or Deep Cameo contrast. If so, then expect to pay a very significant premium.
