The seam between the two buffaloes shouldn't look like that if it were a brockage. It almost looks cast of welded...

If it weighs 5g, then it is definitely fake or PMD. If it were a true brockage and two coins were fused, then the entire thing would weigh 10g, or the weight of two Buffalo nickels. As is, looks like two halves of a coin were fused together to make a strange concoction of a coin.

It almost looks like a combination of two errors that was then abused afterward. It looks like a partial collar strike struck through a late stage capped die. But then something/someone beat up the reverse.

I can tell you without seeing it that it is a "dryer coin."
