Rick A. wrote with an opportunity for collectors of bust dimes:

 

After thirty years, my collection of bust dimes is starting to be sold at Heritage.  Most were purchased raw, so the first auction will include the coins that have been graded since purchase or that were purchased already in a holder.  The auction is October 13, a “friend link” to the coins is here:  http://coins.ha.com/c/search.zx?saleNo=60487&collection=28&FC=0&type=friend-consignorpreview-notice

 

The first auction contains some earlier dimes and some key dates, such as the following:

 

1803 JR-3, R4 Fine 12 Ex: Hilt Collection

1823/2 JR-3, R2 AU58 Ex: Gorman

1829 JR-3, R4 AU55 Ex: Jules Reiver Collection

1829 JR-10, R5 Curl Base 2 VG8 Ex: Stack's Bowers ANA Signature Auction, 2013

Both 1824/2 varieties with the JR-1 a VF30 and the JR-2, High R5 VF20 Ex; David J. Davis and the Plate coin in the Bust Dime, Variety Identification Guide by W. Zack, L. Scuderi and M. Sherrill
