I have a 2019 LSC that I think has a die clash. I'm no expert, but I've seen die clashes before and I think I might possibly have one here. Can I get help? Thanks. (It's above the US in Pluribus, I cant draw arrows with my laptop and something thats something else above the U in Unum I need help on.)

I don't see anything. That area might be a little too deep to show a clash. Here's an overlay of a LSC.

I am sorry. Doesn't quite look like it... It might be. Maybe post more pictures, in different light?

 The red represents what I think is the die clash and the blue is something else.

Any ideas before I spend this?

the marked red circle looks like a plating bubble, the light blue marker is a carbon spot, don't see any die clash on this coin, better pictures could help but at best it would only be a minor die clash if better lighting showed any, this is a spender

above the us is a line that matches the overlay a bit. The stuff in the shield "maybe". But I can't say for sure, and its not the pics, if its really a clash, its hard to identify the pattern of his clothing, which is what this would be, which is a design made up of... straight lines...
One way to verify this would be to find a couple more. Any chance this came in a roll of em, being '19 that seems like a chance you could have scored more than 1 ?
I would put it away until you can figure it out. Today's minor die clash in 200 years is tomorrow's collectible.

Hi, CoinHunter17. Can you please look at the 2 & 9 of 2019 (1st pic). Kindly see if there there are split serifs. Too, kindly let the experts check PLURIBUS UNUM (second pic) if there are notching or just MD. The ones that you circled are they depressed or incused? Thanks...

@sosicoin, The one's I circled I believed are depressed. Sorry, don't know if they're split serifs.
