, but I believe it was an "In the street" coin being run over by metal-shoe horses, metal-banded wagon wheels and hard rubber tire early auto tires(and maybe even ammo for the early Pidgeon slingshots)....then spent time being used as a coin after being rescued from the "Highway to H**L!"

A little bit like my life, got really beat up with a lot of rough edges that time and a good woman wore smooth...

Damage looks more intentional than accidental to me.
