Looks like environmental damage or it was introduced to some kind of chemical IMO.

Acid was the first that came to mind. Looks like it sat in it for a while.

Even if it was on the wrong planchet that wouldn't give it a reeded edge.

Looks like acid was put on the surface of the coin and eaten into the surface. Normal cent planchet. The question if it were a wrong planchet because you saw what looked like reeding is incorrect. The reeding is made by a collar on dimes, quarters, halves and on the gold dollars the motto and date are made by the collar. Just a damaged coin.
