The lowest denominations of current UK coins will be attracted to a magnet.
In the UK, copper-plated steel was used for 1 and 2 pence coins beginning in 1992, replacing their bronze predecessors. Steel, being an alloy of iron, can be attracted to a magnet.
The 5 and 10 pence coins were changed to nickel-plated steel in 2011. These coins will also display magnetic properties.
In 1998, some 1 and 2 pence coins were issued in bronze (not magnetic).
The lowest denominations are magnetic (attracted to magnets).The current 1 pence, 2 pence, 5 pence and 10 pence coins are nickel-plated steel.(The change was made to 5 and 10 pence in January 2012.)
The non-magnetic pre-1992 'Bronze' Penny and Two Pence coins are made of copper, tin and zinc. British 1 Penny and 2 Pence coins were made from copper-plated steel from 1992 and can all be attracted to a magnet, although the coins themselves are not magnetic.
There are no British magnetic Pennies. From 1992, the Royal Mint began making the British Penny and 2 Pence coins from copper plated steel. Because they are made from steel, they can be attracted to a magnet. All years of issue of the British decimal Penny and 2 pence coins are still potentially in circulation, so they are worth 1 Penny and 2 Pence respectively.

There were 12 Pence to the Shilling and 20 Shillings to the Pound.
If you had 1 million pounds in 1 pence coins, you would have a total of 100 million 1 pence coins. This is because there are 100 pence in 1 pound, so 1 million pounds would be equivalent to 100 million pence. Each pence coin represents 1 pence, so the total number of coins would be 100 million.
Pence is the plural of Penny. 1 Penny, 2 Pence, 3 Pence, 10,938,451,117 Pence.
