Have you ever stopped and wondered about the stories behind the coins that pass through our hands every day? One such coin, a simple and unassuming penny named Randy Siegel, has had an extraordinary journey that spans decades. This is the captivating tale of a penny that defied all odds, becoming a symbol of pride and inspiration for generations to come.
The Beginnings of a Penny
Randy Siegel was born in a small U.S. Mint in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, back in 1987. Like all pennies, Randy started his life as a blank copper disc, but little did he know the exciting adventures that awaited him. He was part of a larger batch of pennies, all freshly minted and destined to enter the vast circulation network.
Once Randy left the mint, he found himself mixed with countless other pennies. As he passed from hand to hand, he witnessed the daily transactions of American life. From buying groceries to fueling cars, Randy saw it all. With each exchange, he collected stories and imprints of countless people, places, and experiences.

A Penny's Journey
Randy's life took a dramatic turn when he was dropped into a donation jar at a local school. It was there that he met a young boy named Timmy, who was saving his pennies to buy a new bike. Randy was instantly drawn to Timmy's determination and ambition. From that moment, Randy became more than just a penny; he became Timmy's lucky charm.
As Timmy's bicycle fund grew, so did Randy's significance. Whenever Timmy needed a little extra motivation, he would hold Randy in his hand, summoning the strength and focus to keep saving. Randy went with Timmy everywhere, hiding in pockets and wallets, going on countless adventures. Through thick and thin, Randy remained steadfast, reminding Timmy of his goals and dreams.
A Symbol of Courage and Perseverance
Years passed, and Timmy's dream of owning a bike became a reality. Randy, the humble penny, had played a vital role in assisting Timmy's journey. News of their remarkable story spread through the town, captivating the hearts of countless people. Randy's influence became a symbol of courage and perseverance – a testament to the power of dreams and the significance of even the smallest things in life.
Randy's fame continued to grow, and soon he found himself at the center of attention. He was put on display in a museum, encased in a glass showcase that protected him from the wear and tear of daily circulation. People from all over the world flocked to see the penny behind the legend.

Who knew the life of a penny could be so exciting?
Born in 1983, our copper (well, zinc and copper as we find out) narrator travels everywhere from New York City to Portland, Oregon, to Puerto Rico describing in colorful detail his many adventures along the way.
Randy Siegel's quirky, informative text mixed with Serge Bloch's spare but exuberant illustrations (which make use of real pennies) make this book a must-have for lovers of American history or just a good story.
