Found this in my pocket change. At first I thought it was a nickel because it looks silver. The edge looks like a clad coin(silver and copper. It is 1/16 of an inch bigger than a normal cent but doesn't look like it was damaged in any way. Any ideas?

It has probably been heated, this causes the zinc to come close to melting and spread out.
