A 2nd unlisted reverse was used on the later die states. My 1880-P VAM-34 with the radial die crack through the date it has a 2nd reverse. Before the radial crack appears there is a die chip in the G of GOD. On the LDS with the radial die crack does NOT have the die chip in the G of GOD. Though much later stages of the radial die crack another chip may form.
