It's a replica, presumably brass, of an early German silver pfennig in the name of king Henry II of Bavaria. Download this rather large pdf file (146 pages!), then scroll down to pages 15 and 16 to see numerous examples of the genuine articles; the two at the top of page 16 are the best matches.

The original coins were silver, and weighed only 1.5 grams or so.
