I freaked out when I saw it. It's completely made of copper, how does this error happen?

Welcome to the CCF!

Not copper. Looks like it spent some time in the ground. Environmental damage.
Rest in Peace

First, welcome to CCF. Second, I agree that this is just a regular nickel with interesting, but not value-adding, coloration.

I know laminations aren't worth much but it's still pretty cool

You seem to have a good eye for picking out coins that are different.


I agree that the nickel looks like it spent time in the ground.

The Wheat cent is interesting ... I would hold on to that one
