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 1958-P Franklin Half Dollar has one of the lowest mintages in the series. It's mintage was 4,042,000 but if compared to other coins in the series like the 1963-D which had a mintage of over 67,000,000 the 1958-P's mintage is relatively small.

Most 1958-P Franklin Half's came in nice quality. Only in MS65 grades and higher does it appear to be scarce. In MS66 condition it is scarce but there are still hundreds of examples that exist in this condition. In MS67 condition they are very scarce with less than a few dozen known.
