Finding a coin heads up is often associated with good luck, according to superstition . This belief is rooted in the idea of a battle between good and evil, where heads represents good and tails represents bad. Many people believe that if they find a penny (or other coin) heads up, it’s lucky, and that picking it up will bring them good fortune for the day.
However, not everyone adheres to this belief. Some consider finding any coin, regardless of its orientation, a sign of good luck, possibly a message from a deceased loved one or a sign from the universe.
The rhyme “Find a penny, pick it up, all day long you’ll have good luck” is a popular expression associated with this superstition. If a coin is found tails up, some believe it should be flipped over for the next person, [according to a post on Reddit] . This is done to “change the luck” for the next person who finds it or to ensure good luck is passed on.
