There is one more point to add to this discussion. The reaction as described will work with dilute nitric acid. If the acid is concentrated, the "N" product will be NO2 and not NO.
We just did this reaction in our class lab and the brown fumes were very visible.

This is an acid -metal reaction. It is also a redox reaction in which Copper gets oxidised as it loses electrons (its oxidation number increases from 0 to +2 ) and Nitric acid gets reduced in that it gains electrons. Hope that helps!

It's not a combustion reaction. To be a combustion reaction you have to the the oxygen element by itself as a product. You do not have that. As for what reaction it is. I have no clue. sorry. : (

looks like a single replacement and a decomposition at the same time
