Thanks i thought a dye error. I have seen this before with a dime.

 

error with yourself- die error- I never think I heard they dyed coins

 

And i didnt t know coins die ,its dye not die so correct yourself before correcting others.thankyou hamburgular

 

A transitional (off metal) error would be a 1946 on a 1945 silver nickel planchet.
These metals rust and look like that all the time.
