This nickel appears to be struck on a copper planchet. It weighs significantly less than the other nickel that I weighed. I'm asking for your opinions. I really do appreciate it! Jon

With the extensive wear and corrosion to account for the weight loss, I would think it was a normal planchet.

Agree, discoloration due to ED.

Environmental damage. Not a mint error.
