Obverse description Central field depicts a cartoonish anthropomorphic figure seated at the wheel of a four-wheeled moon buggy in motion, rendered in a comic novelty style with exaggerated proportions. The vehicle is shown traversing a rugged lunar landscape with rocky terrain suggested in the lower field. Five small five-pointed stars are distributed in an arc flanking the central device. The legend MOON BUGGY curves along the upper periphery, and the word PENNY appears in bold relief along the lower periphery.

Additional information

There is no U.S. coin officially issued under this name or description. "Moon Buggy Penny" and "Moon Money" are novelty or fantasy piece designations — likely a elongated cent, a privately counterstamped Lincoln cent, or a souvenir item produced outside any Mint authorization. No legitimate catalog entry can be written without confirmation of the actual issuing body, date, and production context.
