Pretty sure you have a clash. There is also some heavy staining or something environmental going on that is making it tough to tell though. The easiest place to see the clashing on this particular style nickel is around the eyes and I think I can see the memorial. Here is your coin and a shot from Mad Die Clashes website.

Could be. Without a cleaner, clearer pic, it's just guessing. This is the area that got my attention though. Kinda looks like a 90 degree rotated clash but I'm good at seeing things that aren't actually there.
