Hi Eric - not a DDR. Have a look at the dots in EPU. They are not elongated. As such, not a DDR. A slightly more focused photo would bear that...
I found a 1975 Proof Jefferson in 2015. No telling how long it was in circulation but there were spots that still where shiny around devices....
Distilled water.
Not worth grading. Even in MS, it’s only $10 coin that you might get $8 for. As noted, the glue is a detractor and reaching an MS grade doubtful.

Looks like damage. The rim appears to show some damage in the same area of the burnished material. Interesting illusion, but not a mint error.
I can’t tell from these photos. You’ll need a better picture of the steps.
Willy - it sounds like you’re disappointed and confused. Slow down…separate ideas/topics. It’s hard to follow when you blend them. Those...
Me too! ;)
Don't do it! :D

Now...if that had been a DDR...you'd really be whistling!! Fun find. Have a look at the S in PLURIBUS. If it has a serif, it's the expected...
