RARITY FACTOR

The total number of all Dahalonega Gold Coins graded by PCGS
as of January 1997 is 3838 coins, this includes all grades
and all denominations. The true Rarity Factor (within the
Dahlonega series) of each Dahlonega Gold Coin is determined
by dividing it's PCGS Population Report numbers into the
total number of all the Dahlonega Coins graded by PCGS.
Example the 1840-D quarter eagle has a total population of 28
coins in all grades, thus 3838 / 28 = 137 X Rarity Factor.

HIGH GRADE RARITY FACTOR

The total number of all Dahlonega Gold Coins graded (AU 53)
or better by PCGS as of January 1997 is 932 coins. The true
High Grade Rarity (within the Dahlonega series) of each
Dahlonega Gold Coin is determined by dividing it's PCGS
population totals in (AU 53) or better into the total number
of all the Dahlonega Coins graded (AU 53) or better by PCGS.
Example the 1840-D quarter eagle has a total population of 2
coins in all grades (AU 53) or better, thus 932 / 2 = 466 X
High Grade Rarity Factor.
