Why is the head on penny the only coin that head faces the right?

The Abraham Lincoln penny was minted in 1908 to commemorate the 100-year anniversary of Lincoln's birth. In 1907, President Theodore Roosevelt chose portraitist and sculptor Victor David Brenner to design the penny, probably because he admired Brenner's previous works of art. Those works included a bronze relief plaque bearing a portrait of Lincoln. Brenner adapted this design for the "heads," or obverse side of the penny. He based the plaque on a photograph of Lincoln taken on Feb. 9, 1864 by Anthony Berger. Lincoln faced right in the photo, so he faces right on the plaque and faces right on the penny.

What is the value of a 1917 wheat head penny?

There is no such thing as a "wheat head penny". Assuming you are referring to a 1917 Lincoln cent, its value depends on its condition and mint mark. See the Related Link for "Lincoln cent prices" to the right. In circulated condition, you'll get about 5-10 cents for it.


Why does Lincoln face the right side of a penny when all of the other presidents face the left?

There is no special reason for this. The way the presidents face is not determined by any law but is determined by the designer.


1943 American silver penny one side 2 feathers other side Abraham Lincoln?

Zinc-coated steel, not silver. Cent, not penny. Wheat stalks, not feathers. You got Lincoln right, though. Uncirculated examples can be purchased from any dealer for $2 or less. Circulated coins may cost as little as ten cents.


When did they stop putting VDB on the back of the penny?

They stopped putting the VDB on the back of the penny in 1909, the same year they started it. In 1918 the VDB was again placed on the cent but it is located on the obverse [heads] side along the rim at Lincoln's right shoulder. It is still there today although it can be difficult to see if the die has been used to strike a lot of coins.

How do you find the mintmark on a 1955 Australian penny?

Australia struck pennies in 1955 at two locations - the Melbourne Mint and the Perth Mint. The Perth Mint pennies have a very small dot, to the right and in line with the base of the "Y" in "PENNY" on the reverse / tails side. The pennies struck at the Melbourne Mint do not have this dot.
