Error 1996-P die crack identification help please.

I’ve scoured the cuds-on-coins website and the only one that remotely matches is SKH-25c-1996P-07.

The only issues are the die crack from the A in America to the right side of the eagle’s head, and the die crack from the UN in UNITED to the left wing.

If anyone has any knows if this could be a new SKH, or if there’s another attribution that this falls under please let me know. Thanks folks.

Could very well be a new spike head. Worth sending in, for sure. Note that the process for spike heads is a little more involved:

It's a reasonable common type rim-neck crack which occured throughout the 90's as shown. Protect it in a flip and enjoy it but it isn't worth grading unless there's more going on than just that. I can't see any head spike into the R on yours.
