Are there any PUPs that I can lok for other than the G, mintmark location and the diecrack related to it. The G appears to be there but only the lower arc appears discernable. This coin has a large crack from the rim at the last A in AMERICA that cuts radially toward the center cutting the right foot of the last A and also CCW through and and around the wreath all the way through the right wing of the eagle stopping at the letter I of IN. Thanks for looking. nlp

Sure looks like the 29A. Here are the words from VAMWorld on the die stages


Quote:
Die clashes eventually wear off the dies, while die chips and cracks don't go away. They definitely determine order of die state. Picture above shows strong clashes with no die chip formed in between left loop of second 8 (die state 2). Picture below shows weak/eroded clashes with die chip (die state 3). While picture on 29 shows very late die state where die chip formed in between left loop of second 8, but clashes has been eroded (die state 4).


Yours appears to be die state 3, where the clash has worn (or been polished) away.
