The toning is awesome :)

Did the surface flow to make the extra 5? Weird.

The best I can say about that one is that it's worth one cent...even with 3 fives (unless you put it on ebay and find a sucker).

Everyone is wrong about this coin.
It is a purposely made coin by the Mint to commemorate the Chicago Fire.
Or a new commmemorative to honor the Phantom of the Opera.

Look at that. Two good ebay titles to pick from.

If significantly light, possibly acid, otherwise just general corrosion from being in dirt.
