Two different 1944-D over S Cent varieties are known, but only one (FS-511) qualifies as far as PCGS is concerned. On this variety, the underlying S is much higher than the D. The top of the S is clearly visible above the D and diagonal of the S snugs up against the inside top of the D. This variety is fairly common, with over 120 examples graded in Mint State by PCGS (as of 2/17/2011).

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.
