How much does is cost to press a penny???

[busy mom]

I have my shiny new pennies packed, but I can't recall the cost of this? Want to make sure I have enough quarters...thanks!

51 cents.
2 Quarters with each penny. I always stack the change in a film canister that I decorate with stickers for my niece and nephew.

That's what Aunts are for! I don't have any children of my own, so I spoil my nieces and nephews as much as I can afford to. After all, who else is going to take care of me in my old age!

You can also press quarters. If I remember correctly, this costs about $1

Enjoy your trip!

Just a heads up. If you are flying - do not put these in carry on luggage, Pack in suitcase. Got held up LONG time in airport security. Thought they were bombs. Had pennies and quarters. Had to use some kind of testers, pull them out, etc.etc. Took out 25 minutes. They told me to pack in luggage next time. Also got patted down, etc. etc. Daughter(24) was ready to kill me, even though she is the pressed penny Queen. Brought them for her!! I was the LAST person to board the plane. Later we laughed about it. Who would have thought her obsession with pressed pennies would have caused such a mess. Have fun!
