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 2003 Uncirculated Silver Eagles is one of the more common dates in the series, as it has a mintage of about 8.5 million. There are also several dates in the series with mintages under 5 million, including the 1996 which has a mintage of under 4 million.

Most 2003 Uncirculated Silver Eagles were well struck. Examples in MS66 - MS68 condition should be easy to acquire. Only MS69 examples appear to be scarcer due to spotting or minor nicks and scratches. Perfect MS70 coins are scarcer and command a significant premium.
