I had kept this coin for over 15 years and just recently found it. I use to roll hunt for coins, and found this peculiar five cent coin.

It has no standard edge or rim found on regular five coins. Instead, this coin has a very smoothed curved, round edge. Here are some photos.

Is it an error? Opinions? Or just a spender. Thanks for your help.

Would love to know the weight... (and if it is magnetic).
