<< <i>Is this normal in anyway >>

No not normal... Tough call as the surfaces seem etched from possible acidic chemical contact

If genuine, looks like it was buried.

Assuming it is genuine, my guess is that the coin was in a bezel and housed in jewelry for a while.

Looks like a dug coin... Cheers, RickO

No accounting for taste, I guess.

it sure does look like a harsh chemical cleaning. could be dug up as well. it seems the older i get the less i know at times

My first thought was counterfeit that was put in a tumbler to induce wear. But the more I look at it, the more I think it is real, probably buried, with environmental damage.
