Tom Little wrote in response to Winston Zack:

Yes, Mr. Zack you are right on that--I gave this caveat with my comments--"There are going to be many coins XF and under that are uncertified".  If I have gotten many Bust coins certified as a small dealer, I can just imagine how many uncertifieds are out there.

Some Bust dimes I have run at auctions that I bought raw and that graded AU55, referenced in this thread on the PCGS forums:  http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=26&threadid=855345

Hopefully there are experts at statistics as well as long-term coin dealers who could give you information for your research.
