No. If you think about it for a couple of seconds, would it make sense for the Mint to issue a coin that would contain about $75 worth of gold, and sell it for 1¢ ?

Your coin has either been plated for use in jewelry, or exposed to something like heat or a chemical that caused it to discolor. Unfortunately, it's only worth a penny.
