Answer

PENNY

This word refers to a coin worth one cent in American currency. The term comes from the Old English word 'penig' and has been used to describe small copper coins for centuries. It also appears in many common expressions like 'penny pincher' for someone frugal with money and 'lucky penny' when finding one on the ground.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains a double letter, which can be tricky. When you have confirmed several letters but the word is not coming together, consider that one of the letters might appear twice. Words with double N are more common than you might think!
