The 1915-D is scarce in circulated condition and very scarce in uncirculated condition. In MS64 or better, it is actually rarer than the 1914-D and 1916-D. In Gem condition, the 1915-D is about as rare as other early D and S Mint Buffalos such as the 1914-D, 1914-S, 1915-S, 1916-D and 1917-D. Most 1915-Ds are well struck and luster can either be satiny or somewhat frosty.

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.
