    If you are talking about US, my first guess is the '43 steel cent, though im not sure if steel contains copper.

    As numis-addict said, I believe that the correct answer is the wartime steel cent.

    This should be an easy one.
    What was the first US coin to feature a portrait of an African-American person?
