Go to a large coin or bullion dealer with an XRF, ask nicely to have it xrayed, you will have your answer.

I think this Kennedy half has been buried in the ground and later dug up with a metal detector - cupro-nickel coins usually go this color. I've only once dug a modern US clad coin in the UK - a Roosevelt dime - and it was a similar color to this half.

I did not get out of Detroit before rush hour so will post the scratch and other results tomorrow. There is an excellent coin dealer in my area and will see if an xray is possible.
