This is supposedly how Sarah Longacre ended up on the Indian Cent. From a newspaper article I found.

    An old chestnut long disproven. Sort of a chestnut blight!

    It's really Mary Cunningham, and she's also the little girl who's Daddy gave her a new dime from the San Francisco Mint in 1894 to buy ice cream, and posed for the MCMVII double eagle, and the 1916 quarter ! That little kid really got around - and barely aged a bit, too! Later on, she became famous under the stage name of "Michael Jackson."
