So I noticed 3 things on this coin. Starting I was looking to see if it was a variety 4 over 3 but instead found the date looked doubled then I saw pics of the 4/3 varieties they looked similar to mine in fact......

the second thing is the crack well or lamination error not sure what to call it has it at the edge of the coin even to the nose.

the third weird thing is under the chin I thought maybe it was a design change or something but can't find anything out about it.

I have included 2 really close images of the crack the thing under the chin and the date. Was hoping someone could maybe help me figure out what each thing was especially the chin

I see a nice die clash under the chin.

but your close-up pictures are a but too close to identify much more. The clash I see I noticed from the full coin picture...

The 'hairs' under the chin are formed from the letters in 'E. Pluribus. Unum'

It is the word 'Unum' that made the marks. You can see the letters in image #6 (reversed of course) of your close-up images.

Don't see it mentioned by any commenters, but the line across the nose the OP asked about looks like a possible lamination.

The images of a lamination are too close to tell what area it is?
