What's nice is it is struck dead center so some of the rim shows on the full diameter.

Very nice error.  Thanks for sharing it with us. Quote:

Very nice piece. It is 75% copper so the fact that it shows copper tones is not unusual.

Nice - what did it cost you and where did you buy it from? An auction site?
