  Bushmaster8,
  
  Man, you messed up my plans. I just made a superbird in PF68DCAM and it was a top pop. That lasted all of two weeks.
  
  Congrats anyway.

  Is it only on proofs or both proof and business strikes?

  Proofs only. I've been hoarding them for years. I'm glad they are finally getting popular.
  
  I estimate that about one in ten 1952 quarters is a Superbird. So not really rare, but hard to find in high grade or in cameo.
