(Vertical image) RON DOMINGUEZ, Face, star border, DISNEYLAND® Coin commemorates Ron Dominguez’s retirement in1994. |
The number of coins pressed can not be determined because the machine was free to Cast Members back stage and not metered. A quantity of zinc cents were pressed in advance for distribution at the retirement party. Reports to ParkPennies.com suggest the die was presented to Mr. Dominguez as one of his retirement gifts. See also the ParkPennies.com story about the Ron Dominguez pressed penny and Cast Member Retirement Issues. |

An estimated 250 current year, 1998 uncirculated zinc cents were pressed to order in advance by Eurolink for Bill Hogarth’s retirement party on May 19, 1998. A machine was never available. The coins were available to Cast Members and guests who attended the party. As one of his retirement gifts, the die was presented to Mr. Hogarth at the party. It is believed that ten steel cents, nickels and dimes (both clad and silver) may exist as well as a few copper cents (both wheat back and memorial back). See also the ParkPennies.com story about the Bill Hogarth pressed penny and Cast Member Retirement Issues. |

If the coin has any "Back Stamp" or " mule", it’s not a
coin as was available at the Haunted Mansion Event. If the coin has a
"Back Stamp" of "DISNEYLAND® PARK" on it’s reverse, the coin is most
likely a DL0255-257. |

Back Stamp: 2008 DISNEYLAND® RESORT, FACILLITES & OPERATIONS SERVICES, CAST APPRECIATION BAR-B-QUE. |
Preliminary reports state that 300 unpressed "No Cash Value" arcade tokens were distributed to about 150 attendees with the option to press the tokens in the available machine at the 5/15/08 Cast Member appreciation Bar-B-Que. The die, cut by Eurolink, misses the fine detail of hand engraved dies which makes identification of the small type face and copyright difficult. However, the etched back stamp is sharp and easily legible. This is the first formal use of a "token press" at the park and provides a heavy, quality souvenir in a world of zinc, possibly soon to be copper-plated steel pennies, a welcome innovation in this collector's opinion. |
