That coin is in the running for the "been around the block" hall of fame. More intriguing than if it had siply been worn down to a bare disc.

My theory is that it was lashed to the outside of the Space Shuttle, where it was exposed to cosmic rays and extensive jiving by cosmic debris.

It's PMD

Yes just really well worn, such as as a result of spending time between car tires and a macadam parking lot.
