What is going on with washington's forehead where it meets the hair line? There should be hair there and it is more bulbus than it should be. The entire obverse is also slightly thicker than should be.

Warn die, that's understandable. I'm still learning how the die is affected by wear. It can be so different on each die so it's tricky some times.

Hair line on your coin is normal and designed that way, but as mentioned there are contact marks in that area as well.
Here is an image of an uncirculated 2014 Wisconsin quarter.
