Best Answer

The Statue of Liberty is made of pure copper hung on a framework of steel, which was originally puddled iron. Her flame above the torch is coated in gold leaf, which was originally made of copper and later altered to hold glass panes.

The copper is 3/32 of an inch thick, that's just a bit thinner than two pennies.

The copper's green color is a layer of patina that forms with age (extended periods of oxidization). Like a really old penny would appear if not stored properly. The color of the Statue of Liberty before patination was a shiny reddish brown color.

The exterior copper covering of the Statue of Liberty is 3/32 of an inch thick (less than the thickness of two pennies) and the light green color (called a patina) is the result of natural weathering of the copper. The torch was covered in gold leaf in 1986 during the restoration.
