<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 3501834, member: 13650&quot;]Some things are just random.&nbsp; I dont think it was purposely done one way or the other.&nbsp; &nbsp; Lincolns bust for the cent was done in 1909.&nbsp; The Barber motif around the same time also was facing the right.&nbsp; But the Mercury dime which came out in 1916 faces left.&nbsp; &nbsp; Think it comes down to the original designer&#039;s preference if I had to make a guess.&nbsp; No rhyme or reason.&nbsp; The nickel and quarter re-designs came out in the 30s and it&#039;s possible they decided to continue with the busts facing left after that for the sake of continuity I suppose.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
