No. A penny is made out of copper-plated zinc.
No, pennies are not magnetic. They are made mostly of copper and do not contain enough iron to be magnetic.
No, pennies are not ferromagnetic because they do not contain enough iron to exhibit magnetic properties. The composition of pennies primarily consists of copper and zinc, which are not magnetic materials.
No. Pennies were made of copper (Now US pennies are made of copper plated zinc) Magnets are made of iron or other ferro-magnetic metals.
Pennies don't rust. Rust technically speaking is iron oxide and pennies have little to no iron. They do however oxidize, tuning them green from the copper which makes up most of the metal they are made from.
There are 12000 pennies in $120.

i think its something like the iron molocules in the air affect the copper in the pennies when the penny is exposed to air for a VERY long time
No, because rusting has to do with oxygen and IRON. Wax (obviously) has pretty much nothing to do with iron. See, rusting is basically the reaction of oxygen or moisture/water on iron.
Nails are made of iron, but pennies are copper and zinc. Iron reacts with oxygen to form rust, but copper on the outside of a penny does not.

A mixture of water, vinegar, and bleach is corrosive to most metals. If pennies are placed in it, the copper will oxidize. Rusting is a term only applying to the oxidization of iron, not other metals. The pennies will look a lot cleaner and the liquid will turn blue. If you leave the pennies in the mixture too long, holes may start to form in them.
Vinegar (acetic acid) helps dissolve the iron oxide (rust) on pennies due to its acidic properties. The salt acts as a mild abrasive, aiding in the removal of the rust when rubbed or scrubbed against the penny surface. Together, the vinegar and salt solution create a chemical reaction that breaks down the iron oxide and helps restore the pennies' shine.
the bank!
British Pennies and Twopences minted from 1992 onwards are made from copper plated steel. Steel being an alloy of iron and other things, is magnetic. Earlier British Pennies and Twopences were made from bronze which is mostly copper. Copper is a non-ferrous metal and has no magnetic properties.
