Industrial penny squasher
At the World Showcase Plaza you can find this industrial age penny pressing machine along with one or two others of similar design. With the extra brass details, gauges, and ornate legs it is one of the more interesting penny machines around the parks. I'm not so sure they really fit with the theme of the stores they currently reside in which brings up the question - was this their initial home and if not, where did they come from?

My nine-year old is a pressed coin enthusiast.
It does look very Steampunk, n'est-ce pas?
I'm fairly certain this is a redecorated penny press from either Mouse Gear or Merchant of Venus (the XS-Tech one).
