On the Obverse near the rim at about 1 to 2 o'clock....is that a die crack?

That's the large photo posted, I assume you mean the Max photo? I can post it if someone wants to see it.
north about a half inch to a shiny die chip, then continues
squiggling left across the hair to the front forelock.
The coin is a standard MS-67FB & no variety designated.
It is heavily die polished with a few noticeable contact marks.

You guys always amaze me
Typically you don't see many 7FB's with die cracks, but they do exist. This is a really ice Dime.
The die crack is a very typical place to receive a die crack on a Roosevelt Dime. On the reverse, the tip of the bottom of the torch is where I see a lot of die cracks.
Is this Dime for sale?

Later, Paul.
<< <i>That is a lovely specimen of a plain standard 1962-D MS67FB and is very worthy of the grade. The line you are referring to is indeed a genuine 100% die crack and adds/detracts 0% to this beautiful Dime.

Thanks Paul
Not for sale right now. Every so often I get on kick for 1962 (my birth year). I sent 27 of my best coins from 1962 in for Trueview while the special is on. I'm almost ashamed to admit that I had not noticed that die crack until I saw the Trueview. The good is now I have a very good reason to take a good long look at all of my coins, lol.
Very often I won't see something until after I take a pic and look at it. It's strange.
Great dime, btw.
