I can look closer when I get the chance, but it looks like a 1786 23-P.
Unfortunately, it is a fake. No question about it.
Definitely not a real coin, it says copy on the reverse.
Clawing? Not sure what you mean.
Not the best pictures but my gut reaction is that it is real. Most of the copies are copper plated base metal and that kind of wear would expose...
If you can post more pictures of both sides and the edge it would help. You could also weigh it, that alone may answer the question. How did you...

Yup, that is environmental damage.
If in average circulated condition it is worth a few cents.
I have one somewhere with just the UCC. I think I may have gotten it from Littleton when I was a teenager.
If the reverse is normal then it was struck with misaligned dies, if the reverse is off as well then it was struck off center. Either way it is...
Your coin is just damaged.
Just beat up, looks like it was run over a few times before you found it.
