Just seeing environmental damage, and damage on the mint mark. PMD. Not an error. Worth 5 cents.

Never heard of a "Meld error" but it is not an error of any kind, it is PMD.

Please clarify what you mean by "Meld Error". We have never heard that term before.

to me it simply a stained or dirty nickel.

Meld error

That terminology is related to software issues and crashes wont mean much in numismatic errors.

I would assume meld was an autocorrect of melt.

Looks stained or scorched. Not a mint error.

A meld is also a blend or mixture. Perhaps the OP is seeing what they think could be an over-mintmark.
