Looks like it was hollowed out in a machine shop to receive another coin that was milled down to fit.
I suspect a Magicians coin. Weight in grams would confirm.

This was intentionally hollowed out. Probably to make some sort of trick coin.
Suffering from bust half fever.

probably Jasper is right. You has a penny with a replanting bronze and another side with magnetic metals colors.

You could put a dime in the obverse void and make it turn from a cent into a dime? A different trick.
