I bought this on eBay 10 years ago and always thought it was very pretty. I sent it in and PCGS gave it a Questionable Color.
I posted it here a while back and a dealer recognized it from when he owned it. It was in an ANACS MS63 holder then.
So I guess this is my new favorite dime.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

“I believe in intuitions and inspirations. I sometimes feel that I am right. I do not know that I am. When two expeditions of scientists, financed by the Royal Academy, went forth to test my theory of relativity, I was convinced that their conclusions would tally with my hypothesis. I was not surprised when the eclipse of May 29, 1919, confirmed my intuitions. I would have been surprised if I had been wrong.”
“Then you trust more to your imagination than to your knowledge?”
“I am enough of the artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
Albert Einstein- quoted in Saturday Evening Post interview (1929)
Not my only dime, just my best one.

That Hitler dime should have it's own attribution.
I was thinking the same thing on the 1954 dime- never seen that before

In the meantime, welcome to the message boards - your knowledge of bust coinage will be helpful to the collector base.
BTW - why don't you collect bust quarters and dollars for a while and give me a break. LOL.
