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.

David Hall:

After the sales and distribution problems with the 1926, 1926-S, and 1928 Oregon Trails, the 1933-D had a much smaller mintage. The original distributed mintage was 5,008 coins, though at $2.00 they were sold for the double the original issue price of the three earlier issues.

The 1933-D Oregon is 5th rarest overall of the 14 Oregon issues. But the 1933-D Oregon is not exactly a rare coin. Like the other Oregons, the 1933-D is usually found in MS63 to MS66 condition. Luster is usually white and frosty.
