I don't see it. Wouldn't those 2 areas of the dies be lower or sunken into the dies in order to create the raised part of the coin? I just don't see how they can come into contact.

Sorry to be a "kill-joy, but that is only damage from an edge hit. what seems to be the eyes is the serations on the edge, and the "nose", another hit that just happened to be in a position to cause a bit of conjecture.

that is called bag marks. not that it has ever been in a bag it's just called bag marks from early day's when they came in bags.
if it was a clash Abe would be upside down and backwards. Coop is great at overlays and will show you one as soon as he See's the post.
but it is nothing more than damage. it can be in or out depending on the angle of the coin that struck it.
