At over 12 grams it's almost as heavy as a half dollar, so it's not a 1942 cent struck on a nickel or quarter planchet and too small to be a half dollar. I thought perhaps struck on a foreign coin blank, but you can see the raised rim of the penny which makes me believe it is an "encased cent". They usually had advertising slogans or "lucky penny" stamped on them but someone may have made their own.

I’m thinking this.
