    I found this coin while roll searching.The weight on this coin is 25 grams and seems more heavier than the normal zinc copper coated coins,that weighs in at 24 grams.

    Looks like environmental damage. Zinc cents look like that after spending time outside.

    PMD I think. I see a lot of damaged Zincolns that look like detergent or fabfic softener may have reacted with the plating.

    I think you lost a decimal points. Spec on the copper plated zincs is 2.5 grams +/- .1 grams so all of those are within spec.
