Liberty Head $5 1900 DDO and DDR ?

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
3. 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?

Thanks.

    @silviosi ... The D in GOD does appear to have a split serif. Cheers, RickO

    Seem I have a coin from same Dies pair as all the futures are same as the HA show. https://coins.ha.com/itm/liberty-ha...bnail-071515

    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 (by variety):
    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.

    Thanks
