It's spent time in an acidic situation -- cup holder, soil, something.

I agree on an acid attack. Probably from a fountain.

@gps, first welcome to CCF.
Second, yes sure looks like it spent time in a corrosive environment. It should be severely underweight--can you please post the weight? Thx.

There are lots of ways of inventing deliberate PMD to make some interesting fake errors. I collect them all, for my self education, and add them to my 'black' collection.
