Canada’s one-cent coin ended in 2012, closing a denomination that had circulated since 1858. Interestingly, two distinct types were produced that year: early issues on magnetic copper-plated steel, and later coins on non-magnetic copper-plated zinc, adding a unique twist to its final chapter.
Composition: Copper-plated zinc
Diameter: 19.05 mm
Weight: 2.25 g

The coin in the pictures is a circulation issue in mint state condition.
