I would bet money that either your coin has been copper plated, or its been exposed to something that has caused a chemical reaction and changed the color of it.
In either case, it will be worth less than a dollar.
AnswerI have been looking through my dad's coins and I also found what looks like a 1936 copper Indian head nickel. I wonder????? AnswerAny reasonably smart high-school chemistry student can copper-plate a coin using a battery and some copper sulfate solution. I know, I did it myself many years ago (mea culpa!)

∙ 16y agoStandard five-cent pieces were not made out of copper in 1946. Your piece could be one of 2 things: 1 - most likely it was plated by someone as a chemistry experiment. If its weight is the same as a standard nickel, that's a giveaway. In that case it's considered altered or damaged and is only worth face value. 2 - it was struck on a blank intended for another coin, such as a U.S. cent or foreign coin. In that case its weight and/or diameter may be a bit different. You'd need to have the coin examined by an expert to tell.
