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 1949-D Nickel is considered as one of the more common issues in the series. In circulated grades up to MS64 it is also very common. In MS65 condition it is a little scarcer but still available in large quantities and even in Uncirculated rolls. In MS66 condition it becomes scarce, especially with Full Steps on the reverse design. There are less than a few hundred known in MS66 with the Full Steps designation. In MS67 condition it is extremely scarce with less than a few dozen known. In MS67 with Full Steps it is even scarcer, with less than a dozen known and none surviving in better condition.
