LINCOLN CENT ANSWER

  Dick Johnson writes: "There are four features on each side
  of a Lincoln cent, counting images and lettering (they say).
  Hopefully you put the correct lettering in the right space for
  both sides.  (I blew it, I switched two. But I added a bonus,
  I added the engravers' initials on both sides. As a numismatist,
  I bet you did too!)  It shouldn't count if you had Lincoln facing
  the wrong direction.

  Games Magazine quoted a book "How The Mind Works"
  by Steven Pinker (1997):  "Only five percent of the subjects
  drew all eight. The median number remembered was three,
  and half [of the items drawn] were in the wrong place."
