Notes:
"1910-D is scarcer than the
statistics show. Always with a shallow strike, and often unattractive
toning, eye appealing specimens are hard to find. This issue has slipped in
the rankings since the last Edition - it was ranked 26th and rated an R4
[Very Scarce]."1
The finest Uncirculated example graded by
PCGS is a single MS-67.
