1981 Steel or Magnetic Penny

I am looking for any opinions of my penny. I have a 1981 shiny silver looking penny. It sticks slightly to a magnet which leads me to believe it contains steel. However, it DOES NOT stick as strong as the 1943 steel's.

The penny is very shiny, almost reflective. I have had it for over 20 years and it still remains in excellent condition.

The reverse side and the sides are also the shiny silver look.

Any opinions as to the value or whether or not it is indeed real, would be hepful.

I tried to upload a photo but it wouldn't load. I will try again later.
