Just a quick disclaimer that this post will include information on the special 100th Anniversary Pressed Pennies available in the Disneyland Parks in California. If you are interested in information about the Walt Disney World (Florida) 100th Pennies Click Here. There is no information at this time as to how many total designs will be released, but I will work to keep this updated as best I can.
We have a YouTube Video available at the bottom of this post showing you even more details about locations of each machine and the pennies available.
If you have any updates, pictures or information on new machines and penny designs please let know in the comments. Keep on Collecting!
Something very unique about these West Coast machines is that many of the machines have a special backstamp on each penny. Pictures above is the design on the reverse side of all the coins at the 8 design and 3 design machines.
