If there is a 1909 penny with the back of a dime, it is a magician's coin made by a private company, not a mint product. About 2 years ago there was a news story about a collector who had left his copper 1943 penny laying around and his wife spent it. That is the only thing that is checked by a magnet - a normal 1943 cent is the only penny that will stick to a magnet and a copper one will not. Anyway, that story was a bunch of BS and the "collector" admitted it.
