This one has probably been through a grinder....

The coin is split along the edge is this normal?

Thanks.

Yep, damaged by something acidic -- like a soft drink -- which will eat away at the copper core.

Keep hunting. There's good stuff out there.

If it's acid dipped, shouldn't it be all around this one is split about half the circumference?

@Coop—I was impatient and posted this before I got my camera lens. Once I get a clearer picture I will post it.
Rest in Peace

No worries. It is still a damaged coin. The acid eats away the copper first.
