Howdy, Jessica! Sounds like you are looking to score some treasure in the form of pressed currency! Did you know that there are over 150 designs for these tiny souvenirs? I have a penny treasure hunter in my crew, and we've searched far and wide at the
Disneyland Resort over the years to secure these precious pieces of metal. Well, you've got a friend in me and I'm excited to partner with you on this adventure!
Pressed Coin Machines are located throughout the entire Disneyland Resort, which includes
Disneyland Park,
Disney California Adventure Park, the
Downtown Disney District, and the
Disneyland Resort hotels. There isn't a paper map available, but don't fret, all you need is your mobile device with the
Disneyland app downloaded! Once you're in the app, tap the search/microscope icon and it will open a search bar. Enter "Pressed Coin Machines" and you'll see it populate with a little gift bag icon. Tap that and it will open the landing page with general information about Pressed Coin Machines. You should then tap the "Find on Map" icon, and it will open a
digital map that indicates all the locations where you can find the pressed coins.
Once you open that map, you've got the key to all the treasure, so have fun and stay hydrated! In addition to the pressed coins, did you know that there are now
Collectible Medallion Machines that were introduced for the Disney100 Celebration? My favorite one is Princess Tiana which can be found at
Disney Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, in the entrance near the Downtown Disney District entrance. Hope you have a blast on your hunt!!
Stop by again if you have any other questions before you embark on your journey!
So long partner,
Camille
