written by Allan Rossman and Beth Chance
This applet demonstrates drawing numbered pennies from a large sample. The user can change the sample size and the number of samples. Once the pennies have been drawn, the number of the penny and its year is shown. The mean and standard deviation are also displayed. The top  plot is of the average year drawn and the lower plot is of the average year of all of the samples.

This is part of a larger collection of applets on statistics from the California Poly San Luis Obispo.
