    First, welcome to the neighborhood, Julian!

    Offhand, it looks like someone tried to squeeze two coins together in a vise. On the obverse, I can see part of "UNUM" spelled backwards. This is indicative of a squeeze job.

    Your light has washed out some of the obverse, so you might want to position it so the light doesn't bounce back into the lens. Two lights are better than one, and placing them at a 45 degree angle to the subject should help immensely.

    agreed, your coin is the victim of a squeeze job, can also see the memorial across lincolns face...
