    Usually, the estimated mintage doesn't matter. It's the estimated survival number that matters.
    The PCGS Coin Facts web site shows an estimated survival of 200 in all grades with 20 survival in Mint State.

    From my personal recollection, without looking at pops or eBay, it’s only scarce in higher grades. I’ve owned two in low grades just by serendipity.

    I saw that and noted that their estimate can't be close to accurate because they've graded nearly twice that many.

    And there are probably 10x that many that are still raw. I have a raw one that came in a bulk group of low grade Barber dimes.

    All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.

    In my experience they are not hard to find at all, I've picked up several in grades from AG to XF on eBay. Based on how often I see them there, I would estimate they make up somewhere around 5% of the entire population of the date, and there are a lot more than 4,000 of these around.

    I know nothing about it. Looked in the resources thread and the complete guide to barber dimes (David Lawrence 1991 version) has this. Maybe the rarity rating per grade gives a clue or maybe not accurate. I did not look up which rarity rating is being used for barber dimes.
