I voted for the Flying eagle, But all are nice except the 3rd reverse of 2009 and the shield cent. Just never liked those.

For some reason I don't have the ability to vote (even though the poll still says Open).

But my vote would be for the Flying Eagle as the one with the most artistic merit.

Indian Head is the most iconic in my opinion.

Wheat and Memorial cents just don't do it for me, though I do have a jar of miscellaneous Wheaties in my junk drawer.

However, I actually find the Shield reverse to be a nice and worthy design. Now if only they would get rid of Lincoln--nothing against him, of course, but after 107 years it's time for something different. Or just kill the penny outright.

Someone should send polls like this to the US Mint.

I'm sure the Mint would cook up a "special collector set" they could rip you on.

Don't give them any ideas.

I vote for Flying Eagle. It is the only US coin to have an animal on the obverse and I really like the look of copper-nickel for some reason.

I voted wheat for the nostalgia of finding them in change and collecting them in albums.

For me it is definitely the Indian Head cent. I find the design simple yet pleasing, and the coin's are usually pretty affordable in mid grade. My second would be the Wheat cent due to their design and availability in high grades.

Voted for the Wheat cent with the Indian Head a very close second.
