I'm not aware of any reports of 1955 cents in a metal other than standard coin bronze.

If your coin is attracted to a magnet, you most likely have either a privately-made copy, which has no numismatic value, or an off-metal strike that occurred when a blank intended for a foreign coin was accidentally mixed in with standard bronze planchets. The only way to tell would be to have it examined in person by someone who is knowledgeable about error coins.
