I was surprised that I was the high bidder on an auction item, I am certain that some can relate to. It is a 1838 Seated Dime, Large Stars and appears to be a F-106 in it's early die stage, being that the die crack is in it's infancy in comparison to the plate coin on http://www.seateddimevarieties.com/date_mintmark/1838_106page.htm

"Cracked Obverse #1 is seen with a significant die crack starting at the rim between Stars 6 and 7, then through Liberty's left side and exiting through the shield point into a space between the 1 and 8 digits to the rim."

I will post (hopefully) better images after I receive it in hand.

The sellers image makes it appear that Lady Liberty has a moustache.

What do you think that NGC graded her as?

    This would be my guess as well.

    In the 45/50 camp too. Considerable luster on this, especially the reverse. The flat "plateau" on Miss Liberty's right leg might keep it at 45.

    PCGS gave her an AU55 on the crossover;

    1838 10C No Drapery, Large Stars F-106 PCGS AU55 (and CAC liked her too!)
