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.

Jaime Hernandez: There are five major doubled die Washington Quarters from 1932 to date. The 1934 Doubled Die Obverse Quarter is the most dramatic doubled die for the entire Washington quarter series. It is also the most common of all the five major doubled die Washington quarters.

The obverse shows very strong doubling in the words "In God We Trust." The word "Liberty" and the date also show strong doubling but not as dramatic as the doubling on "In God We Trust."

The other four major doubled die quarters from 1932 to date are, the 1937, 1942-D, 1943 and 1943-D doubled die quarters.
