I only see one incomplete punch, the blanking machine punches both sides at the same time.
You've been posting the same coin, same pics, and same questions for seven years now.
Give us something new to go on.
Hard to grade from your pics, we need clear, straight up , fullface photos of both sides.

Individual item prices were/are not rounded.
The total purchase price is rounded only for cash transactions, non-cash transactions are unchanged.

Nickels are not clad so it must be an environmental issue.

A weight would be most helpful.
Is there an aural equivalent for pareidolia ?

Not a fake.
Ringing such a damaged coin is not a reliable indicator of anything.

Not an MS coin, there is wear on the eyebrow and cheekbone, as well as the shoulder of the front paddler.

Not all coins are clad and the Presidential dollars are one such series of monolithic coins. So, there is simply no way for there to be a missing clad layer,
I'm pretty sure they are clad.

What are shards?
Can you elaborate?
You have mentioned them in a few posts.
I can find no mention of this term on coin error sites.
We all have to use the same language here to answer your questions.

They are not coins, they are cheaply made medallions with very little collector interest .
Such errors as you describe are common when lowest production cost trumps quality of items.

Unless there is a significant error on the other side, that is a face value note, no collector value.

The coin is beyond restoration.
Beneath some of those spots the PVC has pitted the surface.
At this point the best you can do is an acetone bath.
Any other procedure would be purely for experimental value, the cost of e z est cleaner on Amazon is more than the value of the coin.
