This Sunday's Chat and Explore while it is cold outside we are going to Explore Pressed Pennies. I'll look at the big bag of pressed pennies/elongated pennies. Starting in 1893 at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago to the modern time the pressed penny had been part of our culture.
If you don't know the term pressed penny maybe you are familiar with one of the other terms : squished pennies, flattened pennies, rolled out pennies and elongated pennies or coins.
Three Major Time Periods:
Colloquially from 1893 to 1965
Modern Elongateds from 1966 to 1985
Contemporary Elongateds from 1986 to present day.
Most of the historical information as gathered by the following websites. For further information check them out.
