Sorry I should have said was this coin distributed for use in North America. And was this coin released in a country that currently has under 7million people total population

My question seems to be understood, so we are down to I believe 8 countries in north America.

No worries, I understood you

Wait until you all learn where this is from, this will get funny from here on, I can guarantee some sort of variety for this one, as this was a cherrypick from the flea market for like 50 cents

Summary:

A North American circulation coin date ranged 1950 to 1969, diameter between 17 and 21mm, on Numista, and issued in a country with a population greater than 7 million...

11.) Is the coin composition either alloy or bimetallic? No

It depends on how pure of metal one wants to go to call it alloyed; most North American coins are alloyed with small amounts of different metals...

American large cents are 100% copper, Sterling silver coinage with 7.5% copper, nickels 25% nickel/75% copper, etc... If a coin is like 80% one metal, 10% another metal, and 10% yet another metal then yes, that would be alloyed. These are just examples, not clues of any sort

I would have deemed Cu-Ni coins as alloys. You don't you need 3 metals to make an alloy. I should have rephrased it as, does Numista list the coin as an alloy (i.e. not a single element).
