    looks like a science experiment. I vote chemically removed nickel layers.

  • It's just post mint damage, and is not an error. Maybe from a fire.

    It is a mess, is what it is...

    Post mint damage, probably from acid.

    That seems to be what we're looking at.

    My guess would be fire or chemical damage. Looks like it may have been buried for a while too.

    Edited to add, the only thing left to do is shoot it. :D
