I think bustcollector wins this thread. Wow those are nice coins. I was all set to declare Easton the winner and then bam! Beautiful dimes across the board though. Spanning almost 200 years, this was a great selection of various types.
Wow, there is some REALLY nice dimes that all of you posted. Thank you everyone for sharing, and thanks for the comments also on the one that I posted.
I love this little guy but he really doesn't fit my collecting scheme presently and I will try to find him a good home

That's a very nice JR-8, an R-3 variety. There is an NGC 65 and an NGC 64 out there, but I have never seen any other holdered coins graded this high or higher. There is a PCGS 63 and at least one NGC 63 as well. This coin looks to be a likely Condition Census coin.

Retired dealer and avid collector of U.S. type coins, 19th century presidential campaign medalets and selected medals. In recent years I have been working on a set of British coins - at least one coin from each king or queen who issued pieces that are collectible. I am also collecting at least one coin for each Roman emperor from Julius Caesar to ... ?
Went to the Chicago A.N.A. and hung out with Dimeman for a few minutes. Seen a couple of his Bust Dimes and was able to catch up for a while. Good to see him.
Went to Rich Ulrich's table and he had a nice selection of Roosevelts. I bought a nice 1949-D PCGS MS67FB and this 1946-S PCGS MS67+FB below which I believe is a S/S DDR & RPM FS-501:
Picking a favorite would be too hard to do, so here is my sentimental favorite. Got this in the late 1980's. It was the First coin I got specifically as a toner.
I am told this coin no longer resides in an MS68FB holder but an MS68+FB holder - the sole MS68+FB in the entire series. Tread lightly, for plastic means $5K plus. Just a little thought and a few pictures.
I have existed since the creation of this world and will exist until its end. Only my form will change. For these 80 human life years, I have the benefit of having a functioning body and consciousness. I will not waste this opportunity.

It is the coin which launched my numismatic adventure.

Well, here's her sister:
1939-D MS69FB at Heritage
Interestingly, all of the 69FB dimes I've seen have had a very similar toning pattern.
And while we're on Heritage's website, the color of this one is amazing:
1916 MS67+* FB

I knew it would happen.
Its hard to choose your favorite Dime - and I have seen some stellar Dimes in this Thread.
UltraHighRelief.....my hat is off to you.
Boiler ... you always have some amazing coin up your sleeve.
This is a hard decision - my favorite is in my Grandfathers' Proof Set of 1889
