    Hello!

    I found this penny today and it's pretty weird, with its silvery color and thick rim. Even sounds wrong when I drop it. Was wondering if anyone here might know whats up with it?

    It looks like a bezel around it. Probably from a piece or jewelry, key chain or something similar

    That is a coin Bezel!
    It's wrapped with another piece of metal around the rim!
