PCGS CoinFacts estimates that ten examples survive in grades higher than Mint State-60, a number that seems generous considering how scarce nice examples of this date are. Ron Guth writes that the 1805, long underrated, is “one of the rarest dates in the series” in Mint State and is “one of the most difficult to find in high grade.” PCGS has assigned a grade higher than MS-62 to an 1805 quarter eagle only twice in almost 30 years, and both of those coins appeared in the D. Brent Pogue Collection, a truly remarkable feat.
