Your coin was turned on a lathe which removed the reverse, that is the source of the concentric rings. There appears to be some glue residue remaining so it might have been one half of a trick coin with the other half missing. Trick/magician coins can be created by machining two separate coins so they fit together.

Suspect it's the remnant of somebody's two-headed nickel.
