The density of a penny from 1979 is about 7.11 grams per cubic centimeter.
A 1979 penny that is gold tinted, looks real, and sticks to a magnet is likely altered or plated with a metallic substance that is magnetic. These types of alterations are common and do not add significant value to the penny for collectors. The numismatic value of the penny remains the same as a regular 1979 penny in circulated condition.

The best way to find out if it is real, simply use a magnet. It will cling to the magnet if it is a real steel penny.
it will have a mark stamped or it or it will say silver/ sterling silver.
It seems if the penny were real lucky, you wouldn't have to ask.
