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.

David Hall:
The 1935-D is a semi-key date in the Washington quarter series. Gems are scarce, but often available. In Gem condition, of the Denver mints, only the 1932-D (of course), 1934-D and 1936-D are harder to find. Strike is usually not a problem and white luster Gems can be found if you look around.
