Could it be a thin planchet? That would account for the lower weight.

If you have been saving that coin for twenty years why did you try to buy a coke with it? Have you decided to spend your collection?

Im not sure but I wouldnt think so , often if you pick up a stack of coins some are noticably thinner than others at times.Itll spend just the same , a coke machine wont take it cos it knows its light I guess.

If it's a "true" thin planchet it would be worth a little more then 25 cents but it's not a rarity.
