Pressed Pennies are how much? - The DIS Discussion Forums

JustAKid · 10-24-2009, 02:03 PM

How much are the pressed pennies? 50 cents + a penny? What about the nickle, dime and quarter machines?

disneynerd420 · 10-24-2009, 02:16 PM

you are correct. the cost for a pressed penny is 2 quarters plus a penny. To my knowledge, they only have penny machines though.

Really? This site lists places to get nickels, dimes and quarters pressed as well...I think...am I reading it wrong? There's a very high probability that I am...

There are definately more than just penny machines.
Usually the machines that press the silver coins make you put in 75 cents instead of just 50 cents, besides the coin you get back.

wow... That is pretty cool. I only ever see penny machines, but I am so gonna try and find a nickel one now!!!

Last week, my son found a special Haunted Mansion Holiday pressed QUARTER machine in the gift shop that sells the HMH merchandise near the exit of POTC. The machine is just inside the entry and coffin shaped. It cost 75 cents plus the quarter you smush. He got one with Oogie Boogie on it. I think they also had one with Jack Skellington and one I can't recall.

You have to be careful--just one penny you are addicted.

rszdtrvl · 10-25-2009, 01:23 PM

Addicted????

Never!!!

(As you can see, we are 6 away from completing our second penny press book - kinda scary considering we have only been to DL twice. Of course, a few pennies are from Knotts Berry Farm & Universal Studios.)

I'm pretty sure we got a pressed quarter with a princess on it in the gift shop outside of IASW. I'm thinking it was $1 plus the quarter, so $1.25.

Can you buy rolls of new pennies in the park?

The last one was Zero. DW decided on our last day to go back and get one for herself and the machine was out of order. Hope it has been fixed since.

I believe we've also found Wall-E pressed quarters in the penny arcade.

I'm not sure about the WALL-E Pressed Quarters, but last July we got WALL-E Pressed Nickels in the Penny Arcade.

We also got Pressed Quarters:
- one had Mickey riding on a Carrousel
- the other had the character Stitch

Did you purchase the books in Disneyland? Where?

I saw the books in The Emporium on Mainstreet (they had a few different ones) and at the Adventureland Bazaar (??) across from the jungle cruise. They were $7 I think?

Do you really want to carry that many pennies around with you? We usually bring a tube from M&Ms minis filled with alternating two quarters and a penny. We realized on this trip that the tubes from Airborne also work.

Maybe it was nickels. Just remember that they definitely weren't pennies.

I think you can find them a lot of times right on top of the pressed penny machines.
