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:

The 1910 Dime is a common coin and a great value for type collectors. The mintage is just over 11.5 million coins (over a million coins more than in the previous year), thus it is easy to find nice examples in a wide range of grades. Gems and superb examples show up on the market with relative frequency. PCGS has certified over a dozen MS67 examples, but the real highlight of this date is the PCGS MS68+ example that once graced the Simpson Collection. This is one of only two MS68+ Barber Dimes of all dates certified by PCGS, and the quality of each is simply extraordinary.

The 1910 Dime is usually well-struck and well-made, reflecting the superior quality of Philadelphia Mint products.
