That was the idea. Gave them to friends as lucky charms.


But they appear to be squashed BEFORE the train gets there.,

I sure did. But I never saw colors like that. Maybe I should have used a quarter.


Come to think about it I never saw a engine like that until late one night in 1968

Many, many moons ago, when I was a young lad, there was an amusement park that had a machine that would flatten out a penny and print verses and other wording on it. Of course, that was when a penny was worth a penny and was solid copper.

Yeah, I remember those. I wonder if that or the RR track would work with these new coins?

I did that not as a kid, but as an adult with my two older boys. The train came by and the pennies were flattened and elongated and flew off the track. I think we spent nearly 15 minutes looking for them. I have no idea what becaome of them.

Also have used the machines that squash a penny, for my grandsons. Not sure if they still have them.
