Only one of these images of a penny is correct. Which one is it?

I didn’t get it right, but was close… One small detail got me.

    Dang, I picked “D”

    Its A. Many people will pick D, but the penny is th eonly coin where the president faces right instead of left.

    I got it right but didn’t know that the penny is the only coin where the president faces right. Thanks for the info Paul.

    shoot, i originally picked ‘A’, but thought there’s no way the correct choice would be the first one… so I picked ‘I’ instead, but didn’t really feel right about it…

    should have gone with my intuition…

    Funny thing is that I ruled out all the left facing ones right off the bat. My choice was ‘E’. D and E were the most popular answers, after only the correct one – ‘A’.

    Hey Chris! Long time, no see, but I got the common cents question correct. I think it’s because of my most recent trip to Washington that I got this question right. Of course it could also be that I’m a teacher and I’m supposed to know these things…only one can wonder why. Hope you are doing well.

    I missed it too and I was a banker!! I was really close. I had “In God We Trust” and I had the date and head right… just missed the little text next to the head on the left.

    Also Chris, has your feeds changed. Bloglines hasn’t told me you had a new entry in WEEKS. I was coming over here to comment how quiet you’ve been, but then I see entries. Hmm.

    Yeah, the path to the feed changed when I did the revamp a while back. Resubscribe and it’ll be fine.
