It's a good close-up but could you back up a little and post it again. It may get the fuzzy out of the pic.

these are tricky, especially after seeing so many coins your eyes WILL play some tricks.

Its blunt, unfortunately...great reference picture by doctorman, the pointed 5 has to almost touch the branch.

Your does look VERY close to a pointed though...

When you look at doc's pic the straight part of the 5 on the left is the same thickness as the part that is hanging down, on a blunt the thickness's are different. Hope I have explained this right.
