DISNEY’S ANIMAL KINGDOM COINS
REPLACE ANNIVERSARY PENNIES In May 2024 the three designs
commemorating Animal Kingdom’s 25th anniversary were replaced with three new
designs. Mickey walking; Wish; and Huey, Dewey & Louie. Each of the three
machines at Discovery Trading Company received a single new die in May, and
each had also received a new die in January (those coins are available with
our undated 2024 sets, featured below). . We have batched the three new dies
into a single set so you don’t have to buy the older designs while building
your complete sets. Presscoins # WDW24065-24067. Pressed on zinc pennies supplied by the
machine. |
