Wow, we can even see Lincoln there! Nice close up! You might want to experiment with different points of view and cropping choices.

Looks a little out of focus. It may be because your lens was to perfectly perpendicular to the penny, which is indicated by the "ovalness" of the penny.

There is nothing about this photo that makes it original. No interesting angle etc. Yes, you made it big and took out the colour, but it's not interesting.

Nice closeup of a penny. Would like to see a little bit more sharpness in the penny. Lighting is good. It helps to show some good shadows and reflections to lift the engraving out of the picture. Increasing sharpness may give texture of the copper.

I don't think I've ever seen a penny so well. Nicely done. Focus a bit soft. Wish the subject had more context/interest.

There are just too many of this type of shot!

cropped a little too close at the top, I like the black and white, but it just really isn't an interesting shot to look at in my opinion anyway.

This is a great concept...I would have liked to see maybe another angle done? Good detail.
