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.

Ron Guth:

With a mintage of over 19 million coins, the 1912 Dimes is one of the most common of the series and one of the best choices for type collectors. It is common in all grades. PCGS alone has graded over 900 Mint State examples, mostly in a range from MS62 to MS65 inclusive. Gem examples are common through MS66. In MS67, the population of 1912 Dimes drops off a cliff, with fewer than a dozen certified by PCGS -- and none finer.

Two of the nicest 1912 Dimes are both PCGS MS67+. The first has amazing, multicolored toning; the second is a mostly white example from the Lily Nicole Collection.
