Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 03/17/2023 08:51 am There are circular cracks through the letters of VICT and CA on the photos which are also markers for Obverse 10. Some die cracks are faint and you have to look carefully to see them. On earlier die states die cracks will be fainter and on later die states they will be bolder. The location of the die cracks is the key. For instance the reverse crack to the tip of leaf 7 is there as Fourmack said, but it is faint and partly covered with a little dirt on the coin, so it does not appear as bold as the crack in the photo from the Haxby catalog. Those later closeup reverse and obverse photos are nice and show the details well enough to ID this coin as the 10+E12a. Report this Post to the Staff

Phil310 Pillar of the Community United States 1101 Posts	Posted 03/17/2023 11:00 am Yes it is common R-1 on the rarity scale. It's a nice looking coin. There is a youtube video that one of the members of the forum put together to help with using the Haxby catalog. bG-l59KrOOw Also you should read the article Dr. Haxby wrote as an introduction to understanding 1859 N9 cents. https://www.vickycents.com/prime.html Hope these will be a help.
