Damaged someone put it on a lathe and removed the back.
You can see the grooves.

Half Magicians coin ( intentional post mint damage, half environmental tarnishing/staining/discolouration (also post mint damage). Interesting, but of no numismatic value.

Is one half of a Magician's coin called a "magi's" coin?
