Incidently, my experience on this date is out of 100 raw mint set coins, one gets 1-2 MS65FS and a small fraction of -1- MS66FS. To pull, (10) MS65FS, 5 MS66FS and 2 better on 100 coins is unheard of - congratulations

My experience on these coins was just slightly better out of the mint sets. I actually got much better results from rolls.
I currently have about 10 -12 @ MS65FS, 3 -4 @ MS66FS and perhaps 1 with a outside shot @ MS67FS. None of these have been submitted yet.
Based on my experience with the rolls, I expect the pop numbers to change significantly in the higher grades.

i think that this type of pricing and pop reporting for a date that's been released in the last year is partly to blame for some of the negative response from members regarding modern issues. honestly, to claim some type of rarity/scarcity exists on a 2002-D anything seems a bit premature. considering 3 individuals have cherried the coins mentioned above leads me to conclude that the date exists in numbers sufficient to satisfy the growing demand. were this an issue with several years of searching a limited mintage my opinion might change. given the lapse of less than a yrear though.................

Thank you for the congrats and advice. I guess I need to make some quick sales.
I have a MS66 96-D that I'll sell to anyone who's interested at $300. That may sound a little steep so PM me with a reasonable offer. It has an EDS strike and it's prooflike, it actually looks like it could go 67. The appeal is very stunning. I have another in a Anacs holder so this is an extra one. This coin is a little more marked up than it appears in the pic but under magnification. The reverse is just as nice if not better, there are no marks on the reverse.
The first pic is original but doesn't show the prooflike fields and super luster but you can see how sharp the rims are. I reduced the brightness in the second pic to show more detail.

Large numbers of these still sit in the fed waiting to be released. It is impossible to know
what quality is like on these without looking or at least spot checking them. In normal
times these coins would make it into circulation over the next couple years with a bare
minimum of collector interest. The high grade examples would end up just as worn as the
rest with the passage of time. The last few years have been anything but normal. The
possibility of gems being intercepted before getting into circulation has increased dramat-
ically and is likely to increase further. It's not impossible that large numbers of these will
end up in collector hands. I like recent dates too, but would never pay a huge premium
for coins that still sit in the fed unless I had some indication of the overall quality of the yet
unissued coins.
