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 1960 Proof Jefferson Nickel is very common in most grades up to about PR67 Deep Cameo. Although examples in Deep Cameo condition are much scarcer than non Deep Cameo or Cameo examples, they can still be found or purchased inexpensively in PR67 Deep Cameo condition or lower. This issue is considered scarce in PR68 condition or higher, whether it displays non Cameo, Cameo or Deep Cameo characteristics. In PR69 condition it is very scarce, especially in Cameo condition, and in PR69 Deep Cameo condition it is almost unheard of, with less than a dozen examples known and with none being graded in better condition.
