Wow, it's probably been a couple years since I filled a hole in this set, that's how hard it's getting! This was a recent opportune purchase (and one that likely blows my coin budget for a while!) that completes my second 1920s P-D-S sets. Based on David Akers' difinitive guide to 20th Century Gold Coins (2nd edition), the 2015-D ranks 14th of the 53 coins in the series in terms of rarity with total known mint state population of 475-560 coins. Despite the high mintage of 2,938,500 coins, the vast majority were melted in FDR's gold recall of 1933 and was once considered far rarer before a number of European bank hoards were discovered in the 1950s. Like most examples, this one has nice gold color and moderately abraded surfaces, but she's still pretty!
