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.

Gordon Wrubel: Quickfinder Notes: On both the Reverse of 1797 and the Reverse of 1794, the right branch of the wreath terminates in a Double Leaf. The best way to distinguish between the two is to look at the Ribbon Bow. The Reverse of 1797 has its Ribbon Loops starting AT the Ribbon Knot. The Reverse of 1794 has its Ribbon Loops starting on a short EXTENSION ABOVE the Ribbon Knot. Hence, it has been termed the "High Bow" reverse. The Graded and No Graded populations of these two reverses are almost dead even. But both of them are much scarcer than the Reverse of 1795 with its Single Terminal Leaves.
