Don't usually look for error coins but I got this one in my change.
I can see three different problems that I would like some opinions on.
The black showing in the centre is reflection from my lense.
1) Copper showing (Electroplating problem ?)
2) Holes in rim (I have seen this on early silver coins)
3) Flattened beads on obverse & some on reverse. (?)
This has been around for over two years. Surprised no one took it out of circulation.
Does it have any value?
Thanks for any help as I am not too knowledgeable when it comes to error coins.

very interesting, I took some pictures of a nickel around this period. The nickel I had also looked like this however did not have one spot of corrosion. It seems to be electroplating...
