Lincoln's face on a penny
While I was visiting Dan and his family is Springfield during the holidays, we went to the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum. Lincoln spent his productive years as a lawyer in Springfield prior to being elected president. At the museum, they had one of those penny crushing machines that could imprint Lincoln's profile onto a penny for 51 cents. I would have made a penny with Lincoln on it for everyone I know, but alas, it was broken.
