Ten could have very well been what was installed at the factory. Ten was quite common. Nine leaf was also fairly common.

10 leaf front spring 01A-5310-B was the standard for the 1940, Dlx, 85HP, Business Coupe. It used 48-5455-C Clip and 48-5458-A Bar. As Kube mentions the car could have had other front springs ordered.
