The H wheel that is the sought after one (for the A12 guys) is the 15 x 6 JJ. That 15 x 6 JJ will be stamped on the outer rim hoop where the tire will cover it. The tire must be removed to see it. It will also have a large H stamped in the flat between the lug holes at the eight o'clock position, when the wheel is placed with the valve stem hole at the 12 o'clock position. The 1969 H wheels don't have part number or pentastar stamped into them, but will have the manufacturer code, date, and 6.0 stamp near the valve stem hole - designating the 6 inch wheel width.
Chrysler had later 15 x 6.5 "H" wheels up through the mid 70s, but the H stamping is much smaller. These later wheels will have the Pentastar, part number, manufacturer code, and date code stamped near the valve stem hole.
Hope this helps.
 also note the '69 H-wheels have 3- "dimpled" "nubs" for the hub cap, not 4 or 3 undimpled, and the valve stem is in alignment with one of the three nubs when at the 12-O'clock position and as mentioned the "H" stamped at the 8-O'clock position.
