Cents

When the United States Mint was created in 1792, one of the first coins it made was the one-cent coin, and it looked very different from the modern cent. The image on the first cent was of a lady with flowing hair, who symbolized liberty. The coin was larger and made of pure copper, while today's smaller penny is made of copper and zinc.
