This is aluminium dog tag is probably for the training batallion of the unit and is marked 'Neu' (=new) to indicate a replacement item. The First Panzer Army were famous for having got the furthest East (to the edge of Grozny in modern Chechenya) of any German units in WW2. 'O' indicates the blood group.

Condition is nice - perhaps the guy survived, if only as a POW.
