I love the pressed pennies and I love to know about where they come from...so..... for this swap, you will have 2 partners. You will send each partner 1 pre 1982 pressed penny with a postcard and brochure all from the same place. Most places that have a penny machine also have a gift shop where you can grab a free brochure and a cheap post card, also most places will let you into their gift shop free of charge(paying no admission to the attraction). So this should not be hard, and you might find many goodies for collections in those gift shops, :) Let's have fun with this. The reason for the pre 1982 penny is because of the zinc content in those minted after that. Pennies minted after 1982 will turn black in time, then you are left with junk. I bet you have several copper pennies in your purse right now, :) |
