My daughter did a whole book of pressed pennies and started on the pressed quaters at Disney. These are so neat. I hope to get more our next visit. I wonder where else they have the pressed pennies at?

I have several pressed pennies from different places. Are you talking about the machines where you enter two quarters for the fee and a penny that the machine smooshes and imprints an image on? If so, I have one from the Golden Gate Bridge - I walked across it one time and there was a little gift shop with the machine in it. I have one from Seattle at the space needle. I have one from China Town in San Francisco. All over the place. I don't have that many, but I would like to add to the collection. I always get a penny if I see a machine in my travels. :O)

That is really neat! Yes, you are correct about me calling them pressed pennies. Some call them pinched pennies. But first time I saw them was at Stone Mountain GA and then at The UnderGround Mall in Atlanta. Lost my pennies.
My daughter purchased a book to put them in. Cost about $5 at the stores there in Disney. She ended up getting another book, filled one up.

Yeah, they have them at lots of tourist places. I used to get them alot when I would on field trips when I was a kid. They even have them at some theme parks. :)

I have never seen them but I bet they are really cute and cool looking.
