62 D nickel, last two date digits appear larger than expected

Does the 62 seem out of place, larger? I don't see many nickels so this is a tough one for me, almost like an inverted 9 for a 6. Mint marking looks off as well, damage?

Looks normal to me but looks larger due to wear. The 62 have worn more than the 19. Remember, it has been in circulation for 56 years.

 

I have been looking at a lot of Nickels lately and that does not look normal to me. Like either the 19 is weak or the 62 is larger.

 

Seems like a worn die plus circulation to me.

The bottom of the 6 & 2 looks okay with little fatness, but then it gets fatter towards the top. It reminds me of the worn die strike that happens on the 2017 cents where the 7 gets heavy in the bottom.

Or it just got smooshed a little and flattened out.
