Many different faces would be best

Lincoln has stood for ideals, we still to this day as Americans have a hard time following. The Nation has kept him safe in there piggy banks for close to one hundred years. Could it be time for a fresh new face on that shiny piece of “copper”? Maybe, The U.S. Mint could overhaul the Penny, as it did with the Quarter. The states quarter took ten years to mint every state, (five states every year). Over all the public embraced the idea and gave us something to look forward to when getting change back from the cashier. Giving the penny a facelift could prove to be an interesting adventure, just think in ten years they could come up with fifty people that made a difference in this country and around the world. You would never know whose face you would be sticking down your pants pocket.
