how many pressed pennies does a book hold

Our girls collect pressed pennies on our vacations. I want to get them a Disney penny book and fill it while we are there in November. How many pennies does a book hold? I want to come prepared with the appropiate number of coins. Thanks for the info

Re: how many pressed pennies does a book hold

I just dug DS's out of the closet. We got ours at Disneyland last summer and it is the "Magical Milestones Penny Press Collection Book". It holds 52 pennies and there are 6 bigger slots that I guess are for pressed Quarters...so 58 coins in all. We are pressed penny junkies and get them everywhere we go!

Re: how many pressed pennies does a book hold

52 is a lot of pennies...however there are SO MANY PLACES where you can get pressed pennies at WDW! SO MANY DIFFERENT ONES! If you want to collect them all, I'm sure you'll eventually need more than one book.

Re: how many pressed pennies does a book hold

Iv always thought about getting a little collection of these there so cute, how much did each penny cost in those machines? I can't remember! It might also be a cheaper/alternative collection to the pins too!

The pressed pennies are 51 cents. .50 to run the machine, and the .01 to press.

Do you really want to sell it? My DS needs another one since 2 of his are full and the third is almost full.

Steph, when did Nathan start doing the pressed penny thing? I want to start Nathaniel on it in December, I think he's at the perfect age. He'll be 5 when we go. What do you think?
