No, it is not, turtles usually shed skin in little pieces which may look like bits of plastic, and some turtles shed their skin in large pieces. Turtles shed their skin while rubbing against stone. It is very natural for a turtle to shed its skin.

Are turtles scaly?

None of the turtles I've felt were scaly, their shell was smooth and kind of glossy. It might be a bit rough, especially if they have an injury that is healing, but other than that, not scaly. Unless they were real dirty and then it was grity, or muddy, but not scaly, like a fish or snake rubbed against their grain.
