I have these 5 coins and the 4 to the right are smaller than the single coin on the left. They are the exact same coins. Same year and denomination. They have some marks on the edge. They are not sanding marks, they don’t look like some one cut them either? Has anyone seen or heard anything about this?

How much does your odd-size coin differ?

I do not think there is anything wrong with these coins.
Alu coins can differ in stricking, depending on the force of the machines
