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.

Charles Morgan:

The 1995 American Silver Eagle

1995 proved to be a quiet year for American Silver Eagle bullion coin production. Following the 1994 mid-term elections, investors saw greater opportunity in a surging stock market than in precious metals. Consequently, silver prices flatlined throughout most of the year, averaging $5.20 an ounce.

The 1995 Silver Eagle (#9886) falls squarely in the middle of a three-year low-mintage run. Mintages dropped to a then-record low of 4,227,319 coins in 1994 (#9876), followed by 4,672,051 in 1995, before reaching an all-time series low of 3,603,386 in 1996 (#9900). Production remained subdued through 1998 (#9929) before the Y2K surge broke the drought in 1999 (#9947).
