Looks like it was plated by someone probably the person who's initials are also present on the coin.

 

Any chance you could weigh it? Blisskr is most likely correct... But I have seen some test pieces from the mint that this vaguely reminds me of...

 

check it it's plated then if not the send a picture heritage auctions and stacks bowers see what they saw and also go to your local coin dealer and see what he'll say

 

No I don't have a coin scale wish I did and how do you check if its plated

 

Here's a good shot of the side

 

Ordered me a coin scale when it shows up I'll weigh them and see what happens I'm not lucky enough to find anything rare so I'm sure its prob plated lol

 

Got a coin scale today and weighed these and they came out the same

 

Cant tell via the picture if its plated, but it's certainly been defaced by what looks like a dremel/engraving type tool. Not sure why someone would bother to plate a common dollar in the first place...

 

I'm not sure either but all the words on the side are perfectly readable and I don't see no bubbles or anything but the weight are exactly the same so I'm not sure and I guess the DB stands for dumb butt or Dbag lol

 

Someone earlier mentioned the possibility of it being a Mint test piece. Is it possible they could have engraved it to mark it as such?

 

Still there should be some weight difference.
