I am trying to figure out if this nickel was struck with a penny coating instead of nickel?

I don't think so. Weighing it would give you a definitive answer.

I see a normal nickel. Maybe spent some time in the ground.

If it was on a penny planchet it would be smaller, and not have full rims all around. Weight and sound would tell you also.
