Both coins are 72 D's. There is a ridge that runs below the nose down across the lips. A sharp ridge beside the nose & the eye looks messed up. I have another one that looks very similar but the coin shows more wear. The first picture is of another 72D that looks very different.
Also the issue with the nose of the lower image, it is showing extreme die polishing. So the die wear/abrasion/machine doubling is different. Thus the design looks different. It was normal, but altered on the die and strike.
