the presidents.
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.

The Lincoln penny of 1909 was the first US coin with a president's face on it.
I am guessing you are thinking of Mt. Rushmore . You could also be thinking of coins and paper money and older US stamps.

Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Jackson and Grant are found on current US notes. Lincoln, Jefferson, Franklin Roosevelt, Washington and Kennedy are found on coins. There is also a series of $1 coins being issued , one for each president in order.
Hoover is not on any US coins. He is scheduled for a $1 coin in 2014 as part of the on-going series honoring each president. Many mints have produced medals of the US presidents which resemble coins . Some foreign countries have minted coins with US presidents on them to sell to Americans- one of them may picture Hoover.
Mount Rushmore National Monument is the name of the landmark which has the carvings of the faces of four US Presidents. Mount Rushmore is located in the Black Hills of South Dakota near Keystone, SD.
None! But there are four US Presidents' faces sculpted into Mt. Rushmore, in South Dakota.
They are not all presidents, e.g. Franklin, Chase.
