You know, when I look at the new "back" of the U.S. penny...
...I can't help but be reminded of this:
Yes, it looks like Captain America's original shield, doesn't it?
Now, maybe that just shows what a demented comics fan I am, with my poor frazzled brain immediately responding with Simon and Kirby imagery to a real-world picture.
But then again, maybe the Disney corporation is so powerful, they actually got the U.S. government to change the back of the penny as a way to subliminally promote the upcoming Captain America movie.
I know which of those option I believe...

That would have been....quite a move on Disney's part!! °__O
I call it conspirations!!
They' hiding subliminal images for us!!
Orrrr...maybe the image of the triangular shield as a symbol of America, freedom, defense and liberty just *pre-dates* BOTH of those particular usages by Captain America and the United States Mint, which is *why* they both used it in the first place?
Simple answers are usually best, right? Sheesh, sometimes, people...
