Why do galaxies expand primarily on one plane as oppposed to all planes ie a plate instead of a sphere?

Because galaxies don't expand. The universe expands. Think of galaxies as little spots on a balloon. When you blow it up the surface gets larger not the little spots, but the spots do get further apart. Gravity creates the extreme flatness that you observe. Moments after the big bang the initial structure of the universe was set, that applies to the size of the galaxies as well. The only observable difference is the galaxies were a lot closer to each other in the beginning. Gravity then took over and started effecting the closest galaxies by pulling them closer together. The galaxies face a battle between the expanding universe and the gravity of other galaxies.

How much would a penny stamped at the worlds trade center 11 days before 9-11 be worth?

The following is my opinion: As a numismatic collectible coin it has no value, but as a historical item it may have some, especially if the date is stamped on the coin 11 days before the event of 9-11-2001 and the coin is a 2001 Lincoln cent. As to value, likely not much unless you find someone that wants it.
