I can't speak to the MD as I am no expert on it, but the pointy nose is just damage from being in circulation.

That's funny! It's either die chip or some sort of PMD.

'tis the witch from the "Wizard of Oz". Actual, it appears to be a die chip at the end of Lincoln's nose that has made this into a curiosity.
