To answer the OP. I pick up every penny I find, heads/tails doesn't matter. Although, now the pre 1982 copper ones are a little more appealing.

That is only for coined money, it didn't show up on PAPER money until 1957, I stated "paper". Regardless, neither were printed "In God we Trust" until long after we were already a country.
