This is an old silver Queen Wilhelmina 1 Dutch Guilder coin. More than 14,200,000 were minted.

Thanks efe I didn't even consider that this could be silver
It's a low grade silver.

"The coins bearing the fourth portrait of Wilhelmina, from 1922 to 1945, were downgraded to 0.720 silver, which lowered their weight to 9.9g."
Mystery solved.
Thanks fort ,Sean
