There's alot of them out there, I have a few myself. There are also ones with every state stamped on it too & go into a map of the U.S.A. I seen a couple of them hanging in coin shops.. Nice find all the same though...

I remember the ones with the states when I was a kid were in gumball machines for a quarter..

Back in the '70's, I did lots of penny roll hunting and found lots of these. DFXGregg was right; they were in gumball machines for a quarter. They came with a little paper describing the strange similarities between Kennedy and Lincoln (other than a bullet in the head).

I have a penny similar, but it has the state of Tennessee on it. I kept it and think it is cool, but not sure where it came from. Nice find!

This is so cool. I have to admit that I have never seen or even heard of this penny before today. I like the one of Abe with the pipe and cigar. Guess I will have to start looking closer at my pennies LOL.
