Here is a picture of the plant. I know it is a Coleus, but can someone tell me the specific type of Coleus plant it is? Thanks.

The picture is too blurry to determine details. Would like to post a clearer picture?
There are so many, many hybrids of coleus, and the differences between them are minute. The basic coloration of yours ... red center with light green edge ... matches at least a half-dozen different named varieties. The width of the edging, the depth of serration, the color of the veins, and a number of other minor differences that I can't see in your pic would determine which yours might be. Then again, yours might not be a named variety at all.

If it was produced by vegetative propagation, it might be:
Defiance
Atlas
Apocalypse (deep serrations)
Chocolate Mint
Lord Voldemort
Red Queen
or any of many others.
If it was propagated from seed, then it has no name, because as far as I know, coleus seed doesn't breed true.
Also, since I can't see the leaves clearly, even the 6 "maybes" I've listed could be way off.
