I went with the Flying Eagle. There are too many people/portraits and not enough symbolism on circulating coins.

Braided Hair large cent, Petite Head subtype.

*beat*

Out of the actual poll options, Flying Eagle (though the IHC is pretty close).

I was going to say Liberty Cap Cent but you did not offer that as a choice.

I chose Lincoln Memorial, but it is really a tie with Wheat and I knew the probably Memorial needed some love in this poll.

I guess it depends on which page you read.

I agree that everyone refers to them as pennies, so they may as well be called pennies.

BTW, I voted for the wheat reverse

Voted for the Wheat cent. It mixes a relatively modern font with the old-fashioned device of the wreath.

I almost voted for the Union shield cent. I love the symbolism it represents, and frankly, I think it's just a really cool-looking design.

I voted Indian Head. The Wheat would be a close second for me. I'm not a big fan of real people on circulating coins. Commemoratives are a different story.

I voted for the Indian Head cent. It has always struck me as odd that there was so much hatred directed at the Native Americans in the 19th century, but for half of the century, there was a depiction of a Native American style headdress on something as common as everyday change.


I also like how the Shield Cent currently has no votes...
