Hello, expert. This coin does not appear to be smooth. There are tiny dots of metal all over it. Is it an error, PMD, or Dryer Coin?

Just a plating issue. Very common. No premium.

@dou, in my opinion, this could be either plating blisters or else trapped zinc dust. Either way, it doesn't add a numismatic premium to this coin.

Dough101,
Where are you getting that info from?
Your coin is suffering from a plating issue. Trapped debris like zinc dust. I see no zinc rot.

Please stop quoting Artificial Stupid generated overviews.

At best they are incomplete, at worst wrong.
