Kevin,
I know of a slightly different scale that is used for large cent varieties so the coin hobby may have more than one:

R8+: unique
R8 : 2 known
R8- : 3
R7+ : 4-6
R7 : 7-9
R7-: 10-12
R6+: 13-18
R6 : 19-25
R6-: 26-30
R5+: 31-45
R5 : 46-60...

And it continues on to R1, which is 1500 or more known of the variety. Maybe different areas of the coin hobby have their own scale.
