Looks like a bit of dried adhesive that has now darkened. You could try to soften it up in an acetone bath or just spend it.

I actually think it's normal wear. I think these nickels are 2/3 copper. I think it's the copper coming thru.

Alright thanks fellas just didn't think it was the copper coming through since I have searched so many nickels and never seen it before on much more worn coins but that is why I ask the experts because I am far from that. Thanks again.

The test would be to see if the coins weight is heavy. That would probably be detected. Something added to the coin, would add weight. 5g is the correct weight.

I'd say adhesive has stained the surface. Nickels have never been made as clad or plated coins.

Yeah must be some adhesive because the coin weighs 4.95 grams. Well gave me something to post. At least the box of nickels in came in was one of the best I have opened. Thanks everyone for the help!

Mutton chops. LOL
Def: from WIKI Mutton chops Mutton chops are a type of facial hair that goes back centuries. They're also known as sideburns and stretch down past the cheeks and into a mustache, but missing the chin. They were fashionable throughout the mid-19th century and represented masculinity and intellect.
