Well to update, I soaked it in acetone for an hour and then overnight. It didnt change anything about it. 

On a side note, it really is awesome that there is a resource like this to help the unexperienced figure out the difference between damage and errors 

Thanks for the advice. Headed home to try the acetone now. I never considered it was coated or plated or anything like that.

Hi all. I've been collecting coins for awhile now but ive never really found one I truly thought was an error coin. We just bought some half dollar rolls to see what we found and this was in there. I'm not even sure how to describe it but it looks like it has chips missing on all four sides of the obverse. Plus the date is almost running off the bottom of the coin. The reverse just looks crazy. Like the coin is separating. Finally, its extra shiny. Different than the other 1974s we found. Just curious if anyone can offer opinions on what this is. Thanks in advance.
