Don't see "In God We trust" anywhere on the new penny!

That's because they want to enforce the second part of that "All others pay cash"

I dislike all of them.

I believe that's what "E PLURIBUS UNUM" means.

As per the article, "While the coin will continue to depict Lincoln's likeness on the front, the reverse side will bear one of four new designs, the Mint said.", The obverse (front) will remain the same. That is where IGWT appears. E PLURIBUS UNUM = Out of Many, One. Will the Cramer design be referred to as Cosmo's?

Hmm, I didn't know that. Thank you for the info, have to get space ready in my folder for the new pennies. I'm now working on the 1982's, have to ID the large and small dates and copper/copper plated for the holes.
