The 95 are connected and the 5 has like a double die appearance. I know it is not the greatest photo. It is for the low light.

Sorry, I can't see through the fog. The list would just be a shot in the....Fog? Try an image outside. Not in direct sunlight, but shaded partial sunlight. that might help.

I edited and cropped the picture of the Date and have included it below. I believe that the extra thickness on the digits in the Date are a result of compression (i.e. the coin was smashed in some manner). The extra extensions to the loops of the "9" and the "5" are a result of hits (damage) to the digits.
