 Your coin looks like it has environmental damage, no error. Please don't type in all CAPS.

 Ernesto! What I think you're asking is about the rim, right? It looks like it took a bath in acid, eats the copper away Quicker. Like this? BTW, High Scholl science class projects too...

Quote: Thank you I'm new at this posting ... No problem. Crazyb0 pointed out specifically why I said environmental (or intentional) damage. The center of the edge is sunken in because something acidic ate away the copper core faster than the outer copper-nickel cladding layers. It could have been from an acid bath (intentional) or from being buried in acidic soil (environmental). Keep searching and do ask any questions that may come up!

@ernsto23, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree with the others that your coin was treated with acid. It is interesting, so keep it if you want, but it is only worth face value.
