David Hall

The 1928 is fairly common in all circulated grades. It is somewhat more scarce in mint state and Gem condition than the dates in the 1930s. Most specimens are well stuck and luster can be very 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.
