OK lets make this clear. Does this coin have a man with a beard?

In the spirit of being clear, while this coin COULD have been, at the first Super Bowl, it almost certainly wouldn't have been. 13/20 question asked What you know.  Minted in the us  but not in Philly  >1% copper  between 1939 and 1947

Had to edit an answer I apologize for any confusion, the NANP was only officially accepted in 1947

Quote: What you know. I'm adding, and correct me if I seem naive, my US coin knowledge is growing, but still needs work. Its not a cent from the beard question. I don't know who the Virginia native is. Jefferson? This should eliminate 1 coin denomination. Lets save the mint mark for the guesses, and get the denomination 1st.

I agree @keith12. That would a very sneaky move indeed and absolutely appropriate for this game.
Can you see the Pacific Ocean from the mint where this coin was made?
