My son took this with a microscope camera. It's the "0" in 2009 on the new penny coin. If you haven't seen one of these, they're really cool. They have Lincoln's log cabin on the back. They definitely feel lighter than the old ones though!
Thanks Hey Harriet for sponsoring this meme!

Wild! I would never have guessed!
I have not seen one yet but I'm sure they will be everywhere very soon. I read that something like 75% of all pennies made are in a jar somewhere collecting dust. .
cool! when we are in the US next week for vacation, I'll keep my eye open for a new penny! :)
Goodness - amazing shot!
wow! i'm 100% impressed with the detail he got on this shot. i've not seen the new pennies yet but now i really want to. thanks for sharing.
I haven't seen one either... but given the current economic problems and that the treasury is printing money as fast as possible, it doesn't surprise me that the penny will not be as heavy as before... less copper probably.
wow what an unusual shot!!
What a clever shot. I would have never known what that was.
WONDERFUL idea! Kewl shot for sure. I played at Small Reflections this week ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
Wow...neat shot!
Wow..I wouldn't have been able to guess what that was. Great shot!
How very cool is that?!! Bravo to your son! (by the way...we thought the new pennies were lighter too!)
Thanks for stopping by & for your wonderful comments - we enjoyed them a lot!
Have a lovely week!

Oh, what a shadow
in the “O” of a penny!
Oh, what a delight!
I love this-what a great idea and camera!
That would have been interesting if you didn't explain and we all tried to guess. I wonder what we would have guessed?
Oh and I nearly fell of my chair when you told me about the Saltine. I had a very quick visual in my mind of my son with a large square cracker stuck up his nose. I'm still giggling :D
