Please critique this image - my first with my Nikon 5700

I got a Nikon Coolpix 5700 a little while ago and just recently got all the accessories I need to take pictures (simple things like the flash card and USB cable). This is my first image. I need to know where to go from here. This SAE is NT (though I certainly left it in an environment that would accelerate the process). Your thoughts?

Edited to add:

Sorry about the incredibly small image, it was resized when I uploaded it. I'll see what I can do...

    Kinda small? If you have larger photos of it PM me and I can host them and put them in the thread full size for you.

    Much better on the size....I can't tell the colors very well though.....my eyes? My monitor? The shot?

    I have a SAE sitting in my "coin closet" for the last 5-6 months.....sitting on top of another raw SAE....the top, and only the top, is toning......very golden so far.
    I notice a "dust spot" or something, similar to a couple of the small spots on yours......

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

  • The colors in this shot are pretty accurate. The deep red has just begun recently to go blue, which is what you are seeing all around the rim of the coin.
