Hey coinnoisseurs I've never seen this type of error. is it a blank obverse capped die? It's hollow as if it were missing the copper. very strange. it's very off weight for it to be a copper cent tho.

Half of a Magicians coin? I don't think it's an error coin. I suspect PMD.

Magicians coin comes to mind immediately,
but doesn't show the circular groves that most of them show.
How was the material removed without leaving any evidence/tooling marks on the surface. I wonder?

Good question. Maybe there's fine silver disc in there.

I agree with above but wouldn't that change the size of the coin?
