i’m guessing one of the ironic things are that pennies cost more to produce than they are worth? not sure where, but i think i heard that somewhere. and the other difference is that abraham lincoln is the only president to face towards the right while the others face the left. and the differences that i thought of have already been noted.

The coins differ in that they are worth about twenty-five cents, ten cents, five cents and one cent. [ ! ] But they are all mostly copper with a thin silver coating, except the penny, which is mostly zinc with a thin copper coating. They are minted in Philadelphia and Denver.

The first mint was in Philadelphia, started in the late 1700s, and started there because Philadelphia was the nations’ capital at the time. Other branches opened elsewhere but I think only the two operate now as mints.

The money is backed by bullion, but also saddled with trillions of dollars of debt… not to mention silver has all but vanished from mints.
