Not a fake, plated. I have one from 1958. Somewhere
It is weakly magnetic and noticeably heavier
Here is one I found on the net...

Plated makes more sense - not sure what you mean by " set in like a nickel but a lot more depth " pic is the only way forward here .

Looks like someone made a necklace out of it.

Don't know about the magnet, but it is spooned (A kind of post mint damage).

I agree, probably was on a chain and broke off. The ring around the penny is probably the only part attracted to the magnet.

Yeah, looks like a necklace bezel... Does the magnet stick to the bezel or to the coin ?
