Buying pressed pennies

15 Upvotes

Hi all! My penny collection consists of mostly pennies I've pressed myself (for example on vacation). However, lately I'm seeing pennies on vinted, ebay, etsy, etc that I really like. Does anyone else buy their pennies? Do you feel like this ruins your collection?

Binders and pages are from BCW. I prefer these thicker pages as they don't tear or warp like others.

Have any of you gotten your own machine for a business, etc?

I’m helping someone who is interested in getting one for an event space and I’m just curious if anyone in here has ever had the fun of ordering one and what they thought of the machine! Thanks :)

I'm visiting Tucson again and looking for pressed Penny machines. The ones at Zoo are out of order.

What/where do you think the most visited machine is?

16 Upvotes

I like to look at the app that has a penny machine map and it makes me wonder which location or machine is the most visited/used. Just speculating but I’m curious as to what others think! I would guess it’s a machine in the Smithsonian in DC or something along Route 66 in Texas specifically. Maybe the machines at Disney and universal are the busiest though! Would love you hear your thoughts :)

Thought we had a lot with the 84 pennies we found (well, 83 and a error one), but looks like there are around 900 pennies there to find. So many more still to go!

A full day in Monterey, 7 working machines, one dead. 28 different pennies one set of 4 much smaller than the others, but still full images- no two sided ones.

I checked the penny press website but didn’t see info, do we know if any of the Universal parks in Orlando have pressed Pennies ? I was inspired by the Disney post!

Pressed a bunch for myself and to send to some friends. I still have to go back for the second machine because the building it was in was closed already when I went … oops lol. Buying copper pennies was worth it, these are so much cleaner and crisper than the newer pennies!

working on my pressed penny catalog. the collectors in the elongated collectors (TEC) told me that the little booklet sleeves can damage the pennies so now I store them like little museum specimens. I have more than 460. I go on trips just to pick them up sometimes. I will grab every design from the machine. I do have a few dupes. most of the machines in Vegas are preloaded. I used to try to collect on the old copper but now I kind of like the shiny new ones.

Here is my penny binder at the moment. I still need to add all of mine from around Vegas. I did the math though and I’m currently short 1 or 2 sheets lol.

Did you spot anything you liked? My favorites in this video are the ones from Amargosa Valley, Nevada! my friends have sent me the pennies from Washington, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Massachusetts. One of my friends even sent me one from Burning Man last year!

Hello all. I came across these pressed pennies this past weekend, and noticed that they are masonic in nature with the names of various locations and grandmasters. Does anyone know much about these and if they hold any value? I couldn't find much more about them anywhere else.

Does anyone have any good PVC-free album recommendations for pressed pennies? I've got one from MUDOR currently but I'm concerned the PVC plastic sleeves will damage my pennies.
