12/27/18 Lisa Stiglic of MousePlanet has just published "A Penny for Your Thoughts and Souvenirs". An interesting read that shares fun uses as well as the hobby of collecting Disneyland pressed coins with a bit of penny pressing history too. While at MousePlanet do be sure to tour their web site, other articles, and visit their excellent forum! Happy collecting, Boomer.

2018 California Adventure Holiday Pressed Nickel Set12/21/18 Morning Update! Our thanks to Ed V. for reporting that The 2018 Disney California Adventure Holiday pressed nickels have arrived! This nicely engraved dated set of three nickels with excellent stampbacks has displaced the DCA 2018 annual nickel set. The coin press machine, featuring a new video marquee is located in Jolly Trolley Treats, Buena Vista Street, Disney California Adventure. We have already updated the Disneyland Resort Area Pressed Coin Machine Locations Page PDF and will update the Disney California Adventure Pressed Coin Guide soon. NO Disneyland Holiday Pressed Nickels yet. Keep checking this page for updates. The two sets often arrive within days of each other. Happy collecting! Boomer. PS: Thank you for posting links to www.ParkPennies.com :-) [Grammatical edits 12/21/PM]

12/18/18 As longtime ParkPennies readers know, we try to keep the posts to a minimum. But, given that there have received so many inquiries about the traditional Disneyland Holiday Pressed Coin Sets recently, I thought an update would be in order. As of this morning, we do not have any new machines to report. However, we are still hopeful that the Disneyland Holiday nickel tradition will continue in 2018, for the 23rd consecutive year. So, do bookmark this page. We post news here and the Disneyland Resort Area Pressed Coin Machine Locations Page PDF first. If you spot a new machine before Boomer, you can claim bragging rights and get name credit for the find when you share the news with fellow ParkPennies readers. Best of the Season and Happy Collecting! Boomer.

Disneyland Pressed Penny Collector Walt Disney World pressed coin DT000212/7/18 A 2019 update to the business card type elongated coin by the well-known elongated coin collector and roller, Don Cade was reported today. It's engraved "Disneyland / Pressed Penny Collector / 2019 / Walt Disney World". We've updated the ParkPennies.com DT Don Cade Tribute Coins Guide to include this latest issue. Best of the Season and Happy collecting, Boomer.

12/7/18 No 2018 Holiday Pressed Nickels yet... We receive reports and updates often, not to mention "ParkPennies Staff" park inspections and interrogations :-) But, so far nothing new to report. We are entering "The Holiday Pressed Nickels Zone" :-) these fun treasured collectables could be onstage most anytime over the next few weeks! If you spot a new machine / new set of pressed coins at the DLR, share the news and get credit for being the first to report them, here on ParkPennies. Best of the Season and Happy collecting, Boomer.

11/23/18 Just reported: A "Disneyland / Pressed Penny Collector / Walt Disney World" DT0002H half dollar example! We've already updated the guide with this cool new addition. Happy collecting, Boomer.

11/23/18 Just a quick post to hope your Thanksgiving made a wonderful memory for years to come. And... to confirm that, although Disneyland Resort Holiday Pressed Nickel sets are a tradition going back to 1995, and although every rumor suggests that the tradition will continue this year, no Holiday nickel pressed coin machines have been placed onstage yet. We hope to post news soon, but, if you spot them first, please share the news (and get finder's name credit :-) by contacting Boomer.

New Shanghai Disneyland Resort pressed coins November 8, 2018.11/07/2018 Our thanks to Jimmy in Hong Kong for reporting a new set of three Shanghai Disneyland Resort pressed coins. These pressed planchets are "vended" from a machine that has eight different designs. If you are a collector of these coins, please also see (y)our Shanghai Disneyland Pressed Coin News page. Happy collecting, Boomer.

11/07/2018 Occasionally a Disneyland Resort pressed coin machine is reported to ParkPennies as missing or out of order. Because the Disneyland Resort Anaheim, has on site Disneyland Cast Members to adjust, maintain and repair their machines, often the machines are up and running quickly. If you spot a jammed machine etc. please report it to the nearest cashier. They usually will call in a repair request. In my experience, if the machine cannot be adjusted or repaired on site, it will be taken offstage, often for a short time. Because machines are often offstage for preventative maintenance or are repaired quickly, we do not update the machine status until it appears the machine will not return for at least a few days.

Open the Disneyland Resort Pressed Coin Guide World of Disney 2018 coins.10/27/18 Reported by Chuck & Delores N. The World of Disney Store coin press machines have returned to DLR! They are in new cabinets... and have new stampbacks to match the newly remodeled WoD Store! The ParkPennies Disneyland Resort Pressed Coin Guides are mostly updated and of course, the Disneyland Resort Area Pressed Coin Machine Locations Page PDF has been updated with the new machines locations. (I'm not sure how to describe the machine locations, they are now both inside the store and away from the doors. But, you'll spot them. By the way, these are "DR" guide coins and you can press them without paying admission! Happy Collecting! Boomer.

09/24/18 White Water Snacks at the Grand Californian is closed for remodeling. The penny press is inaccessible. It may be retired, but, we may not know for sure until December when, I'm told, White Water may reopen. Boomer.

09/22/18 Just a status update... many ParkPennies readers, including yours truly hope to see a new machine. We are often searching the park for one and many rumors have suggested that there will most likely be another new set of coins onstage soon. But, nothing yet. Maybe a set for the current Halloween Time? (A time to watch out for haunting things... like the software bugs at ParkPennies! :-). As always, if you're the first to spot a new pressed coin set, you can share it with fellow ParkPennies readers by clicking this link to contact Boomer. Happy collecting, the Folks at ParkPennies.

09/05/18 We've updated our very modest Disneyland Pennies In A Bottle page. Although you may see some bottles that you have never seen before, it's still a very new guide / collection that's just getting started. (Compared to other ParkPennies guides. :-) As you may know, it's been many years since Disney offered these little treasures to guests at their resorts and information about them is hard to come by. So, additions to make the guide complete will greatly rely on the images and information you can share. If you have some history or a Disney themed penny in a bottle that isn't pictured, please please let us know. We look forward to adding it to the guide. And if you don't mind, we'd like to thank you by adding your name as contributor to this fun and nostalgic Disney Pennies In A Bottle Guide. Happy collecting, Boomer.

08/27/18 Okay, maybe we're bragging just a bit. :-) ParkPennies was awarded a 2018 TEC Presidential Merit Award! Our thanks to TEC for this honor. Also, our thanks to the many ParkPennies visitors who have contributed their reports and suggestions that are part of this fun web site.
As longtime readers will remember, Bob and Anastasia (Boomer and the ParkPennies Staff :-) have been members of TEC for decades as have many ParkPennies readers. It's a wonderful way to meet fellow collectors and keep up with the hobby. Members enjoy the TEC News, elongated coins, member ads, fun events and more. All for a very modest membership fee that makes possible the good work this well respected, non-profit volunteer powered organization has been doing since 1966. If you are not already a member, do checkout TEC, The Elongated Collectors. Happy collecting, Boomer.

Disneyland Pressed Penny Collector Walt Disney World pressed coin DT00028/20/18 A new pressed coin was reported to ParkPennies by Dee D. and Don C. It's a business card type elongated coin by the well-known elongated coin collector and roller, Don Cade that is engraved "Disneyland / Pressed Penny Collector / Walt Disney World". The perfect coin for many ParkPennies.com readers! :-) We've updated the ParkPennies.com DT Don Cade Tribute Coins Guide to include this cool new pressed coin design. [Edited 8/21/18 to help rationalize the confusion of the original post. :-) ] Happy collecting, Boomer.

Coin Press Marquee. Shanghai Disneyland Resort pressed coins. Reported 8-12-20188/12/18 Our thanks to Jimmy in Hong Kong for reporting the latest Shanghai Disneyland Resort pressed coins... and the marquee picture too! As you can see, three retiring 1st Anniversary pressed coins were replaced by three new coin designs, Chip N Dale, Mickey & Minnie, Mickey & Pluto. (Note: Because the ring dies used in these machines hold four dies each, we think the "carry-over" castle may also be "new" coin, probably a variation of the castle that was offered with the 1st Anniversary set and the castle that preceded the 1st Anniversary set.) Collecting coins from SHDL? Here is a link to ParkPennies pages dedicated to Shanghai Disneyland Guides and Shanghai Disneyland Resort News. Happy collecting, Boomer. [Edited 1/14/18 to correct some grammatical errors and add some more. :-)]

8/12/18 Wonderful news! Kuniaki Hiraki, the well-known fellow collector and web master of Kuniaki Hiraki's excellent Tokyo Disneyland Resort Pressed Coin web site contacted ParkPennies with a status update. Kuniaki writes: "I apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately I was leaving Tokyo due to work relationship at end of June. Therefore, I can not go to TDR, and I can not update the homepage from June. Currently, I am looking for a person who will make medal purchase. As far as I can know, about the medals that released after June, the page of guide number was updated. I apologize for any inconvenience but please do not hesitate to acknowledge it." I have assured Kuniaki that his hard work is greatly appreciated and that he need not apologize. Given he is now living in Sapporo, more than 1,000 kilometers and 16 hours travel from Tokyo, maintaining his excellent guides will be much more difficult. If you can be of help providing new TDR coin images, machine locations, etc. please contact him via his TDR pressed coins web site. Happy collecting, Boomer.

4/28/18 Two web sites, victims of regulations and requirements, have been given space here on the ParkPennies.com servers. Both were "sponsored" by ParkPennies and we hope they will become independent web sites in the future. Until then, the more the merrier! :-) These web sites, www.PennyPressLand.com and www.PressedPennies.com will now enjoy no cost web space, "secure HTTPS" connections for visitors and, of course, no banner ads or pay walls! Sharing more Disneyland pressed coin articles and images here on your non-commercial hobbyist web site by and for fellow collectors of Disney themed pressed coins. (Full integration of these web sites, by an average webmaster should take a couple of hours... Boomer hopes to have it mostly done in a week or two. %-) Happy collecting, Boomer and the folks at ParkPennies.com.

4/21/18 Our thanks to Anastasia and David S. for reporting that the DR0192N, DR0193N, and DR0194N princess nickel press machine which was located in the now closed Dream Boutique, did not return when the shop reopened as The Disney Dress Shop. We believe this machine may be retired, but, we can't be certain yet. We'll watch the location / area and see if the machine returns with the Princess set or a new set of designs. Should also be new machines in The Pixar Pier area by this summer too. Let us know if you spot them first... Happy collecting, Boomer.

4/20/18 Do you collect "Pressed Penny Books"? Alan H., TEC#4791, would like to hear from you. He's writing an article on the subject and your knowledge, comments, images, would be most helpful. You can contact him directly at sforangetoby@yahoo.com. Happy collecting, Boomer.

2/18/18 Wow! 2018 is our 20th "online" anniversary! Hard to believe that it all started way back in the last century! :-). In 1998, we shared the first Disneyland pressed coin spreadsheet (compiled by a group of avid collectors) on a tiny 5meg public web address that later became "ParkPennies.com". This 20th Anniversary is a great time to thank you all again for your continued support. Your visits, your sharing of the hobby and ParkPennies with your friends via social media postings, links, shares, likes... It's how the world finds our modest non-commercial site and often how new collectors are welcomed into this wonderful hobby. (Not to mention that your interest in ParkPennies makes our day and motivates us to do even better! :-) We also want to thank the many collectors, Cast Members, industry-related people, and park guests who over the years have helped with new machine reports, images, content, corrections, suggestions... We couldn't have done it without you. Like our mission statement says above: "ParkPennies.com is by elongated coin collectors and for elongated coin collectors, sharing and promoting this wonderful hobby and preserving its history. ParkPennies has nothing for sale, is a non-commercial and ad-free hobbyist reference site based on our enjoyment of the Disney pressed penny collecting hobby since 1988, our online posts since 1997, and most importantly, the contributions by fellow collectors over the decades. So, please feel free to enjoy, contribute updates, and share ParkPennies with friends as we have with you." Happy Collecting! Boomer and the folks at ParkPennies.com. PS Sorry, no free car giveaway for our 20th. But, we do have a Free Penny Machine Locations page! :-)

Also the Disneyland Pressed Coin Guide and the Disney California Adventure Pressed Coin guide were completed with the addition of images and descriptions for the coins that were issued this week.

We recently refreshed y-our incredibly beautiful, indispensable, free and worth every penny, work of art and compendium of knowledge... too much? :-) Okay, the boring drop-down menu at the top of the page. :-) It now has more stuff, it's more organized, we corrected a few errors and probably added a bunch more! :-) A copy of the finished product is adjacent to this post and... at the top of most ParkPennies pages. Do check it out maybe you'll see an article, guide or collection of interest. If you think of something that is missing or you'd like something added to make navigating better, please let us know. Happy collecting, Boomer.

1/24/18 Our thanks to Mark S. for his help in updating the Machine Locations Page, especially DCA and reporting that the Splash Mountain machine is inaccessible, hopefully it will be relocated. Also, two seasonal machines were taken offstage today. The Disney California Adventure Holiday nickel machine and the Disney California Adventure 2017 Yearly nickel machine. Could be 2018 Yearly nickel sets are planned. The Penny Machine Locations page has been updated again. :-) Do let Boomer know if you spot a new machine. Happy collecting! Boomer.

1/23/18 Our thanks to Jennifer, several ParkPennies readers and FB friends for reporting that the Disneyland Holiday nickel machine is off-stage. I had hoped it was temporary, the last report had the DCA machine still onstage. But, I guess we must resign to the fact it's gone... probably until the next Holiday Celebration. The Penny Machine Locations page has been updated. Of interest, we are hearing rumors from trusted sources that yearly nickel sets are planned again for early 2018. These cool sets have become an awesome collection on their own... I can't wait to press a set! :-) Oh... The Electric Light Parade pressed penny machine is back at the Main Street Penny Arcade. Happy collecting, Boomer.

1/16/18 Our thanks to Randy K. for reporting that the "Tropicana" coin press is offstage. Randy heard from the store clerk that the machine will return with 2018 designs. The Penny Machine Locations page has been updated.

1/16/18 New Pressed Pennies! Kuniaki Hiraki's I can't believe it's already been more than a week since the last batch of new Tokyo Disneyland coins! So, here's Kuniaki's report of this week's new coins (so far)!!! Kuniaki writes: " Hello, ANNA & Elsa’s Frozen Fantasy & Pixar Play Time medals were released on January 9th, 2018. TDL1815 TDL Penny Arcade --- Anna & Elsa, TDL1816-18 TDL Tomorrowland Terrace --- Anna, Elsa, Olaf, TDS1605 TDS TDS Steamboat Mickey's --- Lightning McQueen, TDS1606 TDS Il Postino Stationery --- Mike, TDS1607 TDS Expedition Photo Archives --- Nemo, TDS1608 TDS Villa Donald Home Shop --- Woody. Thank you, Kuniaki Hiraki in Tokyo Japan." To see pictures of these coins, please visit Kuniaki Hiraki's excellent web site. We have recently updated the ParkPennies 1996-2011 Tokyo Disneyland Resort Guides so they are now more "mobile friendly". If of interest, here is a link to the ParkPennies.com news page of only Tokyo Disneyland Pressed Penny News. Happy collecting, Boomer.

1/15/18 I also noticed the 2017 nickel set located at the Lincoln exit was taken offstage probably sometime early today. I hope to have the guides and locations pages updated soon. We've had a bit of a software "challenge" recently. But, everything seems good now. Happy collecting! Boomer.

2018 Haunted Mansion quarter press set, DL0678, DL0679, and DL0680 on 1/13/20181/15/18 New Pressed Pennies!One of the TOP questions we get here are about the Haunted Mansion Pressed Quarter sets. Our thanks to Eddie, Mike, and Ricky for sharing some great news about that long missed machine. It's back at Port Royal Curios & Curiosities! And it's offering the high quality DL0518, DL0519, and DL0520 / DL0525, DL0526, DL0527 Haunted Mansion pressed quarters including their original and the only high-relief "3D" pressed coin stampbacks ever offered at any Disney Resort... in a new combination. With the addition of these three coins, the DL0678, DL0679, and DL0680, a nine coin Haunted Mansion set has been made. The set features each of the three pressed quarters paired with each of the excellent three high-relief, "3D" ghost stampbacks, Ezra, Phineas, and Gus. ParkPennies' extensive staff, (me :-), is working on a page that will feature this cool nine coin set. I er... ah, I mean the extensive ParkPennies' staff, hopes to have the page completed in the next few days as well as the related Disneyland Park Pressed Coin Guide entries for these new coins. The Penny Machine Locations page has been updated already. Happy collecting! Boomer. PS. Yes, that is a spider sliding down the marquee on this cool new video and sound coin press machine!

1/12/18 Our thanks to Randy K. for spotting an error in the description of a Disneyland Resort pressed coin. A tree image was described as a Sequoia. However, the engraving, upon close examination, appears to be a Redwood. We will be updating these Disneyland Resort USA references today. (Disneyland Paris Sequoia Hotel etc. should remain unchanged.)
Other news... Welcome reports from several ParkPennies visitors mentioned the changes in Disney California Adventure's Paradise Pier that were effective January 8, 2018. Because of the transformation into a Pixar themed area, two pressed coin machines have been removed from stage / are inaccessible. They are / were located at Treasures in Paradise Gift Shop (CA0177-0179 Duffy the Disney Bear / Mickey Band leader set) and Sideshow Shirts Gift Shop (CA0214-0216 Lilo and Stitch set). At this time, we are not certain the machines will return. So, for now, they are listed only as "offstage" in the recently updated ParkPennies Penny Machine Locations page. Maybe we'll see new pressed coins for the opening of Pixar Pier!? Happy collecting, Boomer.
