Well, it's hard to tell ANYTHING from such a small picture ... but Mr. Lincoln looks kind of weird.

If you have it in hand, try taking a higher resolution photo of it. It's only 121x117 pixels. Even older digital cameras can take pictures over 8 times that size. If you have a macro setting (usually symbolized with a flower), that will help immensely as well.

I have been uploading them at about 1000 pixels across. That looks the best. To compress them I use Photoshop's "Save for the Web" feature.

Post Mint damage. Highly improbable that the date on one coin could have been made that way since the entire date was made all at one time.

 

I concur.
