Backstamp: Small Type II Mickey Mouse classic pose, Disney VoluntEars, DISNEY -small ABC logo- ESPN.
Before this machine was moved to Company D on 4/9/10, it was available inside the Disneyland Resort, to Cast Members only. Therefore this set of coins was first listed in the Disneyland Cast Member and Special Events elongated coin guide as CM0032, CM0033, and CM0034.

We do not think this three dimensional engraving was done by Eurolink or in house at the Disneyland Arcade Shop.
This machine moved from location to location. Nickels baring this new, smaller backstamp were first located backstage near the Eat-Ticket Restaurant, Team Disney Anaheim, (Disneyland), on 3/26/10. On about 4/2/10 the machine was moved to a new backstage location, The DCA Cafe, in Disney's California Adventure. On about 4/9/10 the machine was found outside the park just inside the entrance to Company D, the Disneyland Cast Members' store. Cast Members and polite members of the general public were permitted to press coins at this location until around 5/7/10.
The three die nickel press was placed by Disney VoluntEars Fund to support American Red Cross Disaster Relief, Haiti, just after the Haiti earthquake. Robert Hoff of ParkPennies.com was told by trusted sources that the cost of a pressed nickel in this set, at all locations, was a donation of 25 cents or more up to $1.25 plus the nickel to be pressed.

DO0014 Vertical pinched penny, elongated nickel, elongated dime, and elongated quarter. Scrooge McDuck, also known as Uncle Scrooge, with his cane and Bag 'o Money! Inscribed "CARL BARKS, © DISNEY" at the base of the image, classic dot or bead border, initials RWD replace the dot at the center of the coin grip for Raymond W. Dillard, the well known elongated coin collector, designer, and manufacturer. This Disney themed elongated coin is said to be the last done by the very well respected engraver, Bill Grencavich before his retirement.
Backstamp: "Ink" image of the original coin is visible on the reverse of the cents. A "ghost" of the original coins remain in relief on the reverses of the nickels, dimes, and quarters.
In a July 3rd 2010 conversation, Mr. Dillard mentioned to Robert Hoff of ParkPennies.com that he had recently pressed and shipped 1,000 cents per an order he had received from Heritage Auctions. Additionally, that six penny, nickel, dime, quarter sets packaged in plastic were sent to Heritage. All elongated coins were for use as promotional items by the auctioneer. (A trusted source later reported to ParkPennies.com that these coins were distributed at the Comic-Con International 2010 held July 20-24, 2010 at the San Diego Convention Center in San Diego, California.)
Collectors around the world recognize Heritage Auction Galleries as the world's largest auctioneer collectibles including Scrooge McDuck collectibles, comics, Disneyana, etc. The inclusion of a "© DISNEY" suggests placement in this guide section as Disney Off-Site coins e.g. elongated coins licensed by Disney, but, not issued by any Disney Resort. ParkPennies.com has contacted Heritage Auction Galleries for their conformations, corrections, contributions to the back story of this special elongated coin. To date, they have been very gracious, however, without significant comment on the subject.
Carl Barks elongated coins without "© DISNEY" have been issued by the Carl Barks Fan Club, CBFC. We hope to add a page dedicated to these coins in the near future. Image of a Carl Barks Fan Club Coin here.
Reports of this coin by both Nancy Wooten and Ray Dillard were first believed to be of two different coins. Therefore we give credit to both of these well known and respected elongated coin collectors for this find.
