Population Data (9/15): For the 1806/5 overdate, PCGS reports seven in AU58 and 17 finer, the finest a sole MS66 piece shown on CoinFacts. NGC shows five in AU58 and 11 finer.
Heritage Commentary: For the 1806 date, the B-1 (1806/5 overdate), the B-2, B-3, and B-9 are the "go to" varieties to represent it, as all of the other six varieties are very scarce to very rare.
