This kind of thing does look normal -- from what I can tell these are mostly scratches, dings, etc. from being out in the world. Since it's older it's had more time to get tossed around and beat up. If we're missing something, though, by all means direct our attention to it. You might draw some little arrows on whatever you're seeing if you think that would help. These are much better pictures than before, though, Michael. Thanks.
On the '9' there is damage on the west side of that digit. It makes it look like it might be a doubled die, but that metal is pushed aside, making the '9' look like something its not.
