Never heard of a Saturn finish.
By chance do you mean Satin?

Saturn--with coin rolling machine rings.

Having said that, I believe 'satin' would be the question.

Satin finish is exactly that. The surface of the coins have been treated to shimmer in the way a satin fabric might (see below), and very few were produced.
I'm afraid your coin is the very common standard issue. These are so plentiful as to be had for a pound or so in uncirculated condition. Yours has evident wear and is damaged, so worth much less than a pound.

I can't see this being a satin finish and so will be "business" strike - the most common. It also has some wear as well as the damage around the rim.

These are very common in the UK - whenever I buy a job lot of coins I get another handful of them. Typically I sell them at 50p each, although some dealers hold out for £1 or even £2. I think it would need to be in a lot better condition to make more.

Sorry if this is a disappointment.

Yes, standard finish and damage, its worth 25 pence, its face value.
