On the obverse 'heads' side of a US cent is Abraham Lincoln, on the reverse 'tails' side there are a number of different things depending on the year. Coins minted in 2010 have the union shield, coins minted in 2009 have one of 4 designs showing Lincoln's life, ones from 2008 and to the late1950s show the Lincoln Memorial, and ones prior to that in the early-to mid 1950s all the way to 1909 show 2 wheat stalks.

What is the Meaning of the back of the penny?
Which penny are you referring to? WikiAnswers is international, so make sure you specify if it's a U.S. penny, a Canadian penny, a British penny... I have a U.S. Cent which is commonly referred to as a penny. On one side, it has Lincoln's head. Above him, "IN GOD WE TRUST," to his back, "LIBERTY," and to his front, "1999 D." On the flipside is the Lincoln Memorial. Above it is "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and "E PLURIBUS UNUM" (Latin, meaning "Out of Many, One"), and below it is ONE CENT. I don't have access to any other countries' pennies at the moment.
