there are several interesting die cracks on the reverse.

I'll agree with an EF-40 details grade for this coin, and I also agree that the reverse has the extra-bright look of a coin that has been cleaned.
The 1849 Half Dime has at least two overdate varieties, the 1849/8 and 1849/6. They are not obvious at all but they do carry a premium over the standard date, according to the PCGS price guide. Can you tell whether you have one of the overdates?
