Something seems wrong with that nickel. I do have a 1958 lamination nickel, and the surface under it looks like a weak strike and is smooth. This coin looks like it may have been in some acid.
1/100 of an American dollar is a cent. It is NOT a penny. The word penny is used by several other countries, such as Great Britain, to denote their smallest denomination. In order to be numismatically correct, you must use the term cent to describe the American coin.

Hard to tell from the pic, but there is a layer of metal missing with a step at the transition. Coin is much thinner on one side. I believe that if the layer was removed post-mint it would not show the impression of the strike. Strike is weak on the thin side. I am sure this coin was struck on damaged planchet.

I think it could still be PMD. Post it in the coins section to get more advice.
