Looks like a broadstrike to me. Can you get a precise measurement of the diameter with calipers or equivalent?

Looks like a broadstrike. Where did you get it? Compare it to a nickel is it the same size as the nickel?

Barely larger(diameter) than a normal cent. But smashed! Looked like 1/2 the thickness!

Your coin was struck without a collar. Tha makes the rim raise more and keeps it round. Without this collar, the coin pancakes to the shape the die press it into. Still a keeper though.
