Gonna need some help with this one too. Really appreciate everyone's time. It is a clam shell (two places on opposite edges - prb about 40% all together). It is hard to see in the photo, but both deep enough to put a fingernail tip in. Looks like a cladding error too? The weight is 5.4 grams. It looks filthy. Worth grading? Would restoration/conservation help that? Thanks again, Chris

No error. It's been dipped in acid which is corrosive on coins. No extra value. Worth 25 cents

It was in a corrosive environment of some sort. The edges are probably due to the copper core being eaten away faster than the CuNi cladding.

Don't waste your money on any of that you mentioned - it's nothing more than a spender.

Thank you! Always have my fingers crossed for something odd... Appreciate you chiming in. At least I can still learn here.
