Hi Rothammer1

Probably I am misunderstanding your use of the word "penny" in context, but the US does indeed have a coin that we call a penny. Since 1909 it has been the copper Abraham Lincoln 1 cent piece. However the coin does not have the word penny on it.

I'd love to see images of the US gold coins, particularly the St Guadens $20 gold piece. To me it is the most beautiful US coin. I wouldn't mind having a few for the uncertain future.
