What do you mean? I'm not totally convinced ced it was tooled or anything. I personally like the coin just for the idea that there aren't any others like it. It is unique. Definitely a conversation piece.

I'm sorry but that's just silly. I could go out in my shed and make about 20 "unique" coins in about 5 minutes. It surely doesn't make them worth keeping or a conversation piece.

Not really. There are some famous hobo nickels out there and a bunch not so famous. The famous ones go for some good money.

Regardless of your opinion of it being junk or not it has most definitely become a conversation piece. To me just the uniqueness of it is interesting. I have never seen anything like it and thought I should share it with people that would know about it. I am not an expert but it doesn't appear to be created purposely. I thought maybe during minting a piece of metal was between the die and coin. Is this not possible? I understand that would probably do something on the other side or is that only when part of the die is missing? If that isn't possible then I rest my case. Junk or not it is interesting.
