depends sometimes on the date that it was made
You can tell if a 1944 penny is made of steel by using a magnet. Place a magnet near the penny - if it sticks, then the penny is made of steel. Steel pennies were issued in 1943 due to a shortage of copper, so any 1944 penny made of steel would be an error.
A standard penny is made of copper and zinc, which are not attracted to magnets. Therefore, a magnet would not attract to a penny.
The mass of a 1984 penny is approximately 2.5 grams.
There are no 1984 pennies made from steel -- they were made from a zinc core with a thin outer copper layer. So you have a penny that either is missing its copper layer (worth a couple dollars) or one that has been plated by somebody with zinc, silver, or some other similar colored metal (no collector value). If your penny was made of steel, it would stick to a magnet -- try it!
It's just a penny spend it.
