The pictures below show larger front and back views of all (7) Advertising & Souvenir Elongated Cents in this lot. Three of these have a date, and the years that the others were made are unknown. They were probably all made from Lincoln cents. These were all made by an arcade type vending machine that rolls a penny between dies. These machines are usually found at popular locations, tourist attractions, arcades, boardwalks, airports, amusement parks, Historical sites, or any number of other similar places. This is an accumulated lot with different subject matter. Included here, in the order pictured, are the following: (pictures Alamo Fort) THE ALAMO 2005 (pictures New York City Skyline and a bridge) CENTRAL PARK NEW YORK (made with a 1978 Lincoln Memorial cent)
(pictures Santa Claus and a motorcycle) MERRY CHRISTMAS (pictures an Earth globe with a flag) BLUE MARBLE DIVERS (pictures Jesus Christ on a cross and a motorcycle) WE’RE NEVER RIDING ALONE (made with a 1981 Lincoln Memorial cent) (pictures logo) HARLEY DAVIDSON MOTOR CYCLES (pictures a donkey and a ship) C & O CANAL DC TO CUMBERLAND MD 184.5 MILESAll seven of these elongated cents for one price! The largest token here (last one above) measures 1-7/16'' long. They appear to range from excellent to mint as made condition as pictured. |
