Is it something I should spend the money on to have it out in plastic? Or not worth going that far with it

The second one is caused by a die clash. Totally different. Look them up on the internet.

I am on the fence as to whether the coin is a Mint made Error or Man made Error! It has all the appearances of being a Capped Die Strike (i.e. full Brockage) except the much deeper bowl or bottle cap shape on the side (Obverse) with the brockage. Due to this, I am thinking that the Error was man made.
