Hi, I have no references for those coins about different varieties or if it is an interest for..

What I see on this coin:
Observe:
1. back of the neck and bottom of the head = doubling IMO=hub doubling
2. The stars (left side) count from bottom left to right) No. 3, 4, 5 and 6 Die crack between and the star 4 show as an early pre-cud.
3. Upper front of the neck a Die Crack ? or maybe Hub doubling (as per silver coins)
Reverse:
1. The D in IGWT doubling IMO= DDR
2. In UNITED the NITED upper has been union by a Die Crack.
3. T has a split Die Crack orientated versus the rim and touch the rim. IMO = pre=cud

What is your chime on this? Do exist a list of attributions for gold coins? I think has also Die Clash but another topic.

Behind the neck in your first image is a die clash. Looking at Heritage archives, die cracks seem to be common in those areas. The doubled D in God appears to be on all of them, therefore probably the D was doubled when punching the legend into the master die. 1899 and 1901 have it too. Here is an example with all or most of your features.

Thank you kbbpll so no need to put here also the Reverse with a more accentuated Die Clash on the eagle behind the neck and right wing. Seem I have a coin from same Dies pair. All the futures are same as the HA show.

I have others 2 coins without those futures. Very interesting. The PCGS show three coins two very clear with only D doubled (make sense to be back to the master Die) and one with only Reverse Die Clash.

I will go to see how many Dies was use.

For the moment I can say:
1. O and R Clear
2. O clear and R Die clash
3. O die clash and Die Cracks - R clear
4. O - R Die clash and Die cracks.

Interesting. Also the Mint is interesting: 1.4 mill coins, 500K exported in Europe and 200K in Bahamas and Panama.

I do not have MS67 my best it is 64-65 I will see when comeback.
