Appears to be a standard type I planchet blank.

Blank planchets are generally placed into the Mint Error category, because it was a mistake at the Mint that it made it out into collector hands. The coin was supposed to be struck, it wasn't, so that is the error of the Mint.

Yes, washers should have a hole in the center.

Great! Thank you! I did some research on it. I think it's a blank not a planchet. So submitting something like this for attribution would come back an error? I don't think it's a washer like @Creg suggests.

It looks like a coin that met a sander to me.
You need to be a bit more specific, what does the other side of the thing on the left look like -- does it have a minted coin appearance?

If you look at the the edge, does it have a copper layer like a dime does?
If so, you can pay $100-200 dollars to submit it, and in a few months you'll get back a slabbed blank worth about $10 or so.
If not, then you'll pay the same amount to submit it, wait the same amount of time, and get back your original item unchanged.

Both side look identical. No, no minted coin appearance.

It would help if you could supply the weight. That might tell us if it is a blank or something else.

Yep, copper! $100-200 dollars for one submission?? Forget it! Thanks!

Same answer you got ATS
Slightly low weight, but within tolerance (and 2.27g vs. your scale accuracy could still be PEBKC).
Unstruck
No rim
= Type 1 (Blank)
