<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Leighanne Anderson, post: 2192935, member: 75123&quot;]I was given a box of old copper pennies that were bought sometime around 1974 or so when there was talk about stopping the production of pennies the guy said.&nbsp; I have had them over in the corner for months but because of my dad&#039;s love of coins I decided to do a little research and go through the box.&nbsp; I have pennies dating back to 1943, and one penny for almost every year thereafter.&nbsp; I have (4) 1944 pennies with no mint mark and one with a Denver mint mark.&nbsp; How do I know if they are copper or steal.&nbsp; I tried using a magnet but none of the pennies stuck to it. I read that a regular refrigerator magnet will not work but that&#039;s all I have.&nbsp; Any suggestions on how to tell if they are copper or not?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
