It would be worth 5½ cents! (Half of a dime and half of a penny)
AnswerFrom a collectible point of view, very little. This is a "trick" coin used in several different magic tricks. It may also be something that someone chose to make on a lark. Some stores and banks will probably not accept it as legal tender.23
It's a novelty coin, manufactured for the close-up magic crowd. You can purchase them from novelty shops and there is no special value. If you look closely at the dime side you should notice a small line where a dime was inserted into a hollowed out penny. Post a picture somewhere I want to see...
The U.S. never minted a silver penny. It would have more than a dime's worth of silver in it. Your coin has been plated.
It depends on the currency and the coin. In the US a penny is one cent, a nickel five cents, a dime ten cents, and a quarter twenty five cents.
11centsThe joke answer is 5.5 cents (half of a cent and half of a dime) but if the dime half is actually silver and not copper-nickel would be worth about $2, IF you could separate the pieces.It's actually a novelty item made by cutting a dime and a penny in half and joining the sides of each. It's very similar to a two-headed or two-tailed magician's coin made using the same techniques.

Lincoln is on the penny, Roosevelt is on the dime. It's likely a novelty coin with no value.

The U.S. never minted a silver penny. For starters, it would be worth more than a dime! Your coin was plated for use in jewelry or something similar. That makes it an altered coin worth face value only.
Australia does not have a dime coin.
Eleven Cents. This is another version of the magician's coin made by milling two real coins and gluing them together. It sinks to the lowest common denominator: the penny! These magician's coins generally sell for a few dollars apiece -- as a novelty item.
