I knew there was a machine at Loudoun Castle Theme Park in Ayrshire, Scotland and finally managed to locate a penny from there from ebaY

Unfortunately the park closed in 2010

OCTOBER 2014

can anyone give information on this penny?

I believe it could come from the Little Shop on the Rock, Cashel Northern Ireland
They don't appear to have a telephone or email??

What a morning! (April 26th)

From Jorg's collection I have now 3 new single electric design machines to report, they have been there for absolutely years.
One at Catalist Science Centre, Widnes
the second in Bodmin Jail, Cornwall.
and the third Explosion Museum of Naval Firepower, Hampshire

And that the machine at the Wellgate shopping Centre
in Dundee has been changed .

Weald & Downland Museum was visited by Michael and Isobel. It is what Souvenir Pennies call their 'Classic' machine.
It is located in the gift shop, no payment required to access it.

Well this is indeed bad news. All the machines have been removed from London and Whipsnade Zoos. No explantion has been given, just no longer on site. Which is a shame, moreso because I havevn't been able to visit and get the new designs at ZSL. So, if anyone has a spare set????

Discovered because of Jörg's website I've found there is a single die machine at the National Aquarium Galway
The machne isn't working at the moment. Hopefully news on when it is will be here soon...
