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:

Over 4.6 billion 1992-P Lincoln Cents were produced by the U.S. Mint making the coin a really common coin up to about MS67 condition. In MS68 it becomes much scarcer but most collectors with a small budget can still afford it. Only in MS69 or higher is it rare and expensive. This year there was a Lincoln Cent design change on the reverse letters "AM" America. Where the letters are close together or spaced apart.
