That is zinc version of the coin. This was late WWII. Earlier versions were better metals. As Germany was loosing the war, metals became scarce and they used cheap zinc for their coins. In USA we call modern pennies zinclons, in Europe I called these zazis. They are common in some fields. Yours is in decent shape for a zinc coin.
