There are some tough R5+ varieties. The key is distribution, ie, tightly held in museums, active/inactive collections make some R5+ tougher to find than a R6- (with both rarities being correct). My point is that the level of contention shifts from R6- to R5+ to R5- as the number of advanced collectors (50+) grow.
