We printed out a list from this site:

http://www.parkpennies.com/wdwwaltdisneyworld/wdwpennies.htm

There were soooo many (about 18 pages worth!!) that we didn't even take the list with us - if we found a pressed penny machine, great - if not - that was OK, too! We found a lot of the machine in gift shops - especially the ones that you have to pass through when you are exiting a ride! Good luck!
 
My mom is insistant that shes going to get ALL the pressed pennies! I think shes nuts! Hey that list is long and hard to read (vision disorder here) Do you happen to know if theres anyplace to get a pluto or tink penny? there our family favorites.

If you want to find pluto or tink, do a search on the list. I did it on the Very large single WDW pressed penny and quarter file: (text file). Bring up the page and then click Ctrl + F and it will bring up a find field. Type what you are looking for and it will find it. Click the next button to find that word again. There were quite a few plutos and some of Tinker Bell. Just remember to note if they are current or retired.
 

Re: flying_baby Sea World question:

Sea World San Antonio has the pressed penny machines so I am betting the other locations do too.

If you go to Guest Relations at Downtown Disney, they will give you a list of all the pressed penny locations.

A guy showed me his list from Guest Relations on Sunday. It had a ton of places on it.
 
Wow....that IS a long list! If you did them all, it would cost a $28.56. Other than the stress of trying to get to them all, that's pretty cheap for a Disney souvenier!
 
And if I remember correctly, many of the machines have 4 different designs? Still less than many spend on souvenirs!
 
AHHH 4 designs? Great the kids will stand there and play with it till they get the one they want.

You don't have to get all 4; the machine is designed for you to pick the design you want before you put the money in (you turn the crank a certain way and it gives you the one it's pointing to). And yes, there are that many. There are literally hundreds of them (maybe more) in the four parks and the hotels. They're everywhere. My kids got about 20 each on one of our trips and they had to be very choosy to narrow it down to just that many.

We were at Sea World Orlando this summer, and they do have pressed penny machines, but not nearly as many as Disney. Lots of good ones to choose from, though.
 
Odds are we come home with at least 50 pennies each (they make good fridge magnets... Really!)
 
How about the books to put them in?
You do need to watch for duplicates. Maybe I have some because I've been collecting for 5 years. I know a list is a pain but it is nice to keep track of which ones you have.

This list is easy to read but I'm not sure how up to date it is: http://allears.net/btp/pennylist.htm

This list has it printed several ways and tells when it was updated: http://www.presscoins.com/listings/#newlistings

This is a nice listing too:
http://www.intercot.com/infocentral/coins/default.asp

I do think it is fun to search out the machines. Not all the machines look alike either.
 
we wont go after everyone but were gonna try for alot. I have thought about a book but I kinda like how there so visable on the fridge. You can press a quater? WOW!
 
every country in Epcot has a machine too. Did that one year, got a penny from every country :thumbsup2
 
My kids love doing this too. I have been saving pre 1982 pennies and polishing for months. I have a list in Excel that I can sort and do all kinds of stuff with. Yes I am anal about this. But we honestly have such fun getting new ones each year. I may like it more then the kids. I do with they had nicer books for them. The only one we got is already broken and it was not opened that many times.

OMGOSH I so wanna do that. If the kids do it they wont be so bored. Were also gonna get them passports to stamp, My mom thinks I should buy one for and get it stamped for my class. Why pennies from 1982 or earlier?
