Can always take a soldering gun to it to see if whatever is on it melts...

Well, guess I'll just put this one aside for now. Soldering iron didn't melt it, could be silver solder. Anyway, many thanks to all of you for checking it out for me!!
Thanks!

Wouldn't a transporter error make it appear inside out?

"Transporter Chief, did the cent arrive?"

"Yes, Captain, what was left of it. Thank goodness it did not live long."


Could it have been in a fire? Started to melt and
solidified unevenly.

This is an actual Klingon attempt to counterfeit our coins. Since it takes so many years for our TV commercials, advertisements and the Littleton letters to get to the Klingon Empire, the photos get distorted and this is what they think our Cents look like.
OR
This is the results of handing a little kid a Copper coin and they put it in their mouths after eating candy.

It looks like it could be a TERRIBLE attempt creating a counterfeit by casting.
