08/31/19: Machine is just after you enter into the zoo. I entered to the right into the gift shop and asked if I could use the machine without admission. They let me use it just fine. Pennies were not matching the design I lined up for. I did manage to get all 4 pennies but not sure what design went to what penny that came out. They rolled a little short on copper. JLT
