The phrase Liberty and the symbol of the Eagle were legislatively required. At one point it meant our money was honest and free (gold and silver). Now that we slave to the Federal Reserve, it means you have the freedom to line their pockets. www.coinmine.com

What are the three girl's names on a penny?

I hope you are talking about U.S. pennies, and I think you would then be talking about the pennies that came before the Lincoln penny (pre-1909, I think). On all of the American coins before the 1909 Lincoln penny, the female figures were all some form of the Liberty character. There was a seated Liberty, the Indian head wearing a headdress, the Liberty wearing a hat, the buffalo/Indian head, and the large Liberty head form. I think I am correct telling you that all female figures appearing on the U.S. penny before 1909 were Lady Liberty. Cathy
