When I created the coin to honor my friend Jay who had cancer last
year, I sold them for a dollar a penny. When people learned that it
was for charity, they were incredibly generous and people gave me up
to $20 for a single smashed coin, even though I never changed the
suggested donation from a dollar.

Hey guys,

I had a question for you guys about pricing pennies.

I've been working with Oded to make a penny for the Angelman Syndrome
Foundation.  My niece has Angelman Syndrome so I want to sell them to
increase awareness and raise money.

How much do charity pennies usually go for?  Like what is a reasonable price
to sell them?

Thank you kindly in advance,

Mary

Actually, no clutter Joan.  It filled a glaringly empty spot on the wall next
to the entertainment system.  I was going to put a bookcase there, but this
works!

We got about a foot here in CT. No smashing for me until it gets a bit warmer,
hopefully I can hit up all the CT (and maybe NYC) machines I am missing in 2010!

My friend went on Saturday (12/19) and the machine was "out of order" :(  They
gave him a number to call for info, but I don't think he's called it yet.

If the machine gets fixed, can someone make me two sets? -one for me, one for my
friend.  We're both very bummed he couldn't get the nickels while he was there. 
Please contact me at beckyacosta AT socal DOT rr DOT com.  Thanks!

We have one in the kitchen, no room in the living room.

Well, I feel a complete fool now. I didn't even find the first machine, that
was my daughter. It was very dark, but I must have been wandering round with
my eyes shut. I even went on the wheel!

So if anyone is going to London I would love pennies from machines 2 & 3 and
if there are machines at the other two places that Tracey mentioned. I have
plenty of British sets to swap or cash.

Cheers all,

David

I visted Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park yesterday, all ready to squish a
    couple of sets of these coins and I discovered that there are
actually (at least) 3 machines, so I didn't have enough coins with me
for spare sets :o(

Machine 2 is located opposite the Helter Skelter and has 2 designs the
same as machine 1 and a Santa design instead of the London sights penny.

Machine 3 is located near the Giant Wheel and has 2 designs the same as
machine 1 and one of the Giant Wheel.

Unfortunately machine 3 wasn't working properly when I visited (It ate
my pound coins and spat the penny back out without squishing it! :o( )
so I couldn't even get a complete set of all the pennies for myself!

I'm not sure if there were any more machines that I missed - I walked
around it all looking for more, but it was dark and I may have missed some!

All the pennies have www.eti-medals.de on the back and having looked at
their website, it appears there may also be machines at the Winter Ice
Rink attractions at both Hampton Court Palace
http://www.hamptoncourtpalaceicerink.com), and The Tower of London
(http://www.toweroflondonicerink.com) as they have photos of machines
for both.

Is anyone else in the UK likely to be going to Hyde Park or Hampton
Court or Tower of London before these machines go? (I think the 2 ice
rinks are there until 10th Jan.) I am desparate to complete my set with
the Giant Wheel penny that was out of order, and I'd love sets from the
other two and I'm not going to get a chance to visit them myself! :o(
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

          ...Tracey.

I am planning to go to the Jellystone Park in Robert LA in the next month or so
and press pennies. There are 2 machines there. Before I go I'm trying to get an
idea of how many people would be interested in these pennies so I can press
enough. So, if you are interested, let me know. PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME ANY MONEY.
I will smash first and then if you want them the cost is $1 per penny and $1 to
ship both sets.

Also, wanted to let you all know that I emailed the Alexandria Zoo and asked if
they would be willing to smash pennies and send them to me (of course I offered
to send money and the pennies to do so) and before they responded to me, I had a
set of pennies in the mail from them...1 copper and 2 zinc but that's better
than nothing...and there are 4 pennies there so I don't know why I only got 3 of
them unless the 4th one wasn't rolling properly. So, just and FYI. If you need
these, send them an email and you might get lucky like I did.

I first pressed on the machine on 12/1 and it was pressing short cutting into
the Disney copyright.  I talked to numerous people about it.  I even witnessed
one cast member's call reporting the problem.  I returned yesterday and the
machine is now worse than it was before.  The machine even sounded bad.  I guess
I am pleading to the group here.  If you know of anyone who fixes the DL
machines please pass this information on.  In two weeks the machine will
disappear for good.

Regards,
Jamie

Check out the TIPS and FAQS at http://www.pennycollector.com/ for many
different ideas.  My favorite cleaner is Wright's Brass Cleaner in the
bottle (not the tub).  It works faster than Brasso, has no smell, and is
water soluble.  Some people just use stuff like ketchup, or even vinegar.

what can i usr to clean some old pennies?

I have 5 extra chicago penny books for trade.I would like to get 14 pennies for
each book. If you are interested in trading for one, please send your trade list

Thanks

Jason

As far as I'm concerned, the more the merrier.

I would also be interested in Star Trek elongateds, and there is so much to
choose from, that this series would be endless...!!!

I guess I forgot or wasn't aware that Sandy did this.  So thank you, Sandy.
If I knew I wouldn't have received another I would have helped to put one
together.

Just wanted to let everyone know that my daughter is in the hospital again. 
There is no internet in the room, so both of us will be away from the keyboard
probably for a few days, in case anyone is waiting for a package from us.
Linda in FL

The survey I did a few years back is shown in post #10429 if anyone is
interested.
Marie

A few years ago I did an online survey of this group and asked how big their
collections were.  The results are in the archives of this group.  You and
other members may find them as interesting as I did.  My collection is SMALL at
about 3, 500 coins.

What is considered a big collection and how big would the largest collection be?
Thanks
