Not an error, looks like a stain of some sort. Notice how it just shows in the lower areas.

Looks more like staining to me, as most of the color is present in the fields and some pocket areas of the details. Painted at one time perhaps.

   The discoloration and corrosion on this coin are likely just due to exposure to the elements, a.k.a. "environmental damage". It also may have been stained with some pink substance. Remember that "nickels" are actually composed of an alloy of 75% copper, 25% nickel.  The copper is especially prone to discoloration and corrosion.  

   Another site you might check out to identify errors is www.error-ref.com, which comprehensively catalogs known error types.
