Description:
This swap is for pressed penny/coin collectors. You will send 3 pressed coins to your partner. They do not have to be all from the same place, they can be random. If possible please use coins dated prior to 1982, as these coins are copper and hold their shine much longer. To participate you need to have no 1's or 3's in the last six months. If you have a recent 3 and would like to join message me. I will angel for anyone who is flaked upon. Internationals are welcome and encouraged! I love getting coins from other countries! Message me with any questions!

A lot of you will think this is funny, but for a long time, I thought what was the big deal with pennies pressed by a train.

We used to leave pennies on the track and after the train flew by, we would go and pick up these flattened pennies. We would leave them a good five minutes before the train was due. Please never leave one any sooner that five minutes, there is no winner when playing with trains.

Then one day I saw what someone was really talking about.

I don't have that many.... hope you'll do one in the future for just one penny.
