Larger images would help. Why don't you give us a hint?

The date on the coin to left appears to trail off downwards towards the right and Lincolns head appears to be "pulled" upwards and to the left. Let me upload a larger picture Thanks!

Maybe this will help.... What I see is Lincoln is leaning to the left slightly and the date appears to trail downwards to the right a bit.

It looks like you marked the greenish corrosion near lincoln's forehead. Image 1 appears to be the same angle as image 2.

You might want to find a replacement left coin to compare to. It looks like the date on that one has been smashed and worn a bit making it look thicker and longer.

Try comparing to this one I had laying around:

connie0319 - I wonder if, in your effort to locate an error, you are trying to focus too much on very minor variations? I know that I certainly do that. I am so new at this that I am anxious to find an error no matter what it takes!!
