Sure looks like a 10j
Great price on it -- someone needs to snatch it up. I myself was tempted to buy it at that price, but I just don't need it because I already have more than enough tubas.
Those creases in the bell should be fairly easy to smooth out. And it should be pretty easy to lubricate the valves/slides and give the tuba a quick wipe down.
A good 7/8-ish practice/backup BBb tuba

Pan American instruments were 'stencils' made by Conn. 'Pan American' was a subsidiary of Conn.
Also, if you look at the pics, it is clearly engraved 'Conn' on the bell.
Same ferrules and bracing as on the vintage Conn 14k sousa
