    I collect silver coins and was hoping to take some silver Washington Quarters to get pressed, but I’ve heard all of the machines have been converted to only allow to use coins Disney provides. Is that true, or are there still any hand cranked coin presses?

    Hi there, Colby!

    A warm welcome to planDisney and thanks for bringing us a spectacular Walt Disney World Resort vacation planning question. I'm so excited to hear that you're currently on-site at The Most Magical Place on Earth right now! I hope your festive fall visit is off to a phenomenal start.

    Colby, coin press machines are just about as "Disney" as churros and Mickey Mouse ears, if you ask me. Guests can embark on a fun-filled scavenger hunt throughout the Walt Disney World Resort in search of these machines, and the dazzling coins make the perfect travel-sized souvenirs! At the time of writing, nearly all coin press machines located in the Walt Disney World Resort have been converted to digital and no longer accept coins provided by Guests. Instead, Guests can pay using cash or credit/debit card. As machines are upgraded, their hand-crank features are also being replaced by automatic crank, so you won't even need to pack your elbow grease!

    While on the hunt for coin press machines offering unique designs, you can refer to the My Disney Experience mobile app for clues, Colby. Within the app, tap the magnifying glass icon then search "Coin Press" in the search bar. Tap "Coin Press Machines," then "Find on Map." You'll be able to view the locations of coin presses located all throughout The Most Magical Place on Earth - right at your fingertips! Which delightful designs will you come home with!?

    I hope you've found this information helpful, Colby. I'm wishing you a magical and memorable vacation filled with stunning and shiny souvenirs! If you have any additional questions throughout your trip, you can always revisit us here at planDisney. We're here to help you make the most of your time at The Most Magical Place on Earth!

    Warm wishes,

    Lauren
