A "copy" coin (that is, a fake coin made to look like a real coin, and generally labeled - in the United States, anyway - with the word "copy") could be composed of almost any metal. While certain high quality struck duplicates are composed of the same metal as the original (copper, silver, etc.), most others (especially those produced by pouring molten metal into a mold) are produced from lead or other base metals, or even occassionally from plastic.
