Where can I find a summary of patenting dates for foreign patents?

The MPEP provides a convenient resource for finding patenting dates of foreign patents. As stated in MPEP 2126.01:

“Note that MPEP § 901.05 summarizes in tabular form dates of patenting for many foreign patents.” (MPEP 2126.01)

This tabular summary in MPEP § 901.05 can be a valuable reference for patent examiners, attorneys, and inventors when determining the effective date of foreign patents as prior art.
