The Lincoln penny of 1909 was the first US coin with a president's face on it.
None! But there are four US Presidents' faces sculpted into Mt. Rushmore, in South Dakota.
Purely an artistic decision. And not all presidents are facing any particular direction. Jefferson faces forward on the new 5¢ pieces issued starting in 2006 as do many of the images on Presidential $1 coins, for example.
Coins have faces on them to honor that person , statesmen , or president , and they symbolize the country that they were issued by.
The faces of four U.S. presidents are carved into Mount Rushmore, located in the Black Hills region of South Dakota. The presidents depicted are George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln. This iconic monument was completed in 1941 and has become a symbol of American history and culture.
