The first adventure was Epcot where I quickly became overwhelmed. I was using the penny finder Iphone app as well as pictures and diagrams off the official Disney penny list. (Which was last updated in June).
So begins the greatest Pressed penny excursion that I will probably ever get the chance to take part in. 4 parks over 4 days, not including the hotels, resorts, and surrounding areas that I can reach. I do believe this is the holy grail of pressed penny collectors, Walt Disney World. When I found out I was going I was immediately stressed out, "Do I have enough materials to make sure this trip is a success?" I decided to follow the advice of my wife who usually is right and bring everything I had. This included 7 rolls of 50+ polished pennies each and hundreds of dollars in neatly rolled quarters. I even brought polished dimes and nickels just in case there was the odd silver coin press. The first adventure was Epcot where I quickly became overwhelmed.

Thanks to a supportive group I managed to get every single machine except for the Imagination penny machine which closed at 7:00 and a broken 3 quarter press machine right inside the front gate. Oh well, I guess there is a reason to go back. The epcot total is 73 pressed coins (pictured)
