July 7, 2024. The penny machine was extremely finicky. Wait for the penny to drop and then roll REAL slow. You may get your design that you lined up for and you may not.
I rolled 14 times to get 2 decent sets that were well centered excellent images on 95% copper pre-82 pennies. Luckily, they refunded my money on the bum rolls. MWHTH
