Probably nothing but figure I'll ask anyway

Making change yesterday and I grabbed a nickle, it felt weird so I hung on to it. 2015 Nickle.

Taking a closer look I found the shoulder of the rim is razor sharp, more so on the reverse.
Sharp enough to cut skin!

It's rim is flat, I measured it against others and it's the same size, and weight.
It's just like when it was stamped instead of leaving a soft shoulder it sharpened them when the die pressed down into the blank.

Kinda like rubbing a finger across a sharp knife it's so sharp.

Like said probably nothing, but I wouldn't know if it was.
