What country are you talking about?
New U.S. cents are not magnetic; they're made of copper-plated zinc. The only magnetic U.S. cents were the steel ones minted during 1943 so copper could be used in ammunition.
New Canadian cents and British pennies are magnetic because they're made of copper-plated steel. The price of copper went up so much that it cost more than a penny to mint the coins, so the governments were losing money on each one. They switched to steel as a cheaper alternative.
