    technically it still has copper in it now only its plated so something around the lines of .045 of it lmao

    but if u mean when they switched from nearly pure copper to the copper plated zinc that was in 1997:smile

    Yup, the last time a basically full copper penny was minted, was in 1996. In 1997 it became copper plated zinc, and recently the mint switched to copper plated steel.
