I believe this is one of 3 listed LDB's for the 1943 P cent. This example must be an earlier stage since the Retained Cud RCD-1c-1943-112 has yet to form.

Weighs 2.63g

I believe this is corrosion of some sort affecting the surface which gives it a moonscape pitting and dissolved appearance.

Thanks for the comments

This is certainly not a copper cent.

Maybe it was reprocessed but wouldn't it then be over weight instead of slightly under weight?
