Damaged beyond repair -post mint

How? Any hundreds of possible ways - it does not matter and we'll never know the specific method.

If you need a guess ... placed on the cooking surfaces of a 600F outdoor propane BBQ grill.

See what I mean?

Attack of a red Dragon. Only the reds can produce that much heat.

@DL, yep looks like over application of heat to me: bubbling and black scale seem to be the hallmarks of this type of PMD.

Not hot enough, probably have to get closer to 1,700F for the bubbles to develop. Propane torch or a house fire would do it.
