It is not a coin, it is either a medallion or a token.

Re: what is this?
It looks like a token/commemorative celebrating probably from Martin luther. One of the dates is 1987, but can't read the rest.

Neither coin nor token.
A coin is government issued legal tender, a token (usually privately issued) has or had a redeemable value.
Your item appears to be a medallion commemorating 750 years of the city of Wittenberg.
