Question about 1883 Liberty V Nickel w/ die cracks on Obv and Rev and possible Interior Die Break?

I picked this up recently and think it has the following:

1. Die crack on obverse starting above Liberty's head and splitting off around 1:00
2. Die crack on reverse between 1:00 - 2:00
3. Interior die break on Liberty's neck just above the 1 in the date.

Does it look right? I can't find these 'retained cuds' or die cracks on the cuds on coins site, and the site doesn't list any interior die breaks. The raised area on the neck looks like a CUD but on a device, so I'm assuming that means an "interior" die break.

Thanks for your comments.

These die cracks are fairly common
on Liberty Nickels. Neither one is
a retained cud die crack.

The area around the neck appears to be a
possible planchet flaw, not a die crack.


(the coin appears to be cleaned/wiped)

 

Here is a close up of the neck area. Thanks for your help.

 

All three photos of that area look different. ?

First two look like surface flaws, and the last
one looks like a small die chip. In any case,
it's not a significant error on the coin, imo.

See you all on Monday.

 

Thank you Fred. Photo 3 is more representative of the area, it sits above the neck, similar to what I’ve read about a die chip. Thanks for your help!
