I like to collect elongated coins as inexpensive souvenirs to remind me of my travels. Museums and other tourist attractions often have a penny press for squashing that coin to produce a pattern, as shown above. You typically insert 51 cents (two quarters and a penny) and then can obtain one of four designs.
As shown above, usually you have to turn a crank. Other times there is a fancier press driven by a motor. On October 6, 2021 I blogged about the Best historical story about an inflatable prop – regarding the Spruce Goose at the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum.
