At the Chicago World Fair in 1892/93 a vending machine was set up for the first time which was able to produce coins in an elliptical shape. These
elongated coins also became known as “pressed pennies” or souvenir coins. Meanwhile, vending machines of this kind can be found all around the
world, enabling visitors to create their own souvenir. The color of the coin in serted into the machine also determines that of the souvenir coin. Our
pocket sized pressed penny album is an ideal travel companion and enables you to create a “travel diary” of souvenir coins over the years. This handy
album with laminated cover comes with eight inbound coin sheets with durable crystal clear inserts (free from chemical softeners). Each insert holds
six coins each up to 1 1/4" (33 mm) in diameter for a total capacity of 48 elongated coins.
Overall size: 4 1/8 x 5 7/8" (105 x 150 mm).
