NIAGARA FALLS STATE PARK For whatever reason, Pennycollector has trouble keeping track of the machines
in the state park – probably because collectors who report information have
trouble finding them all. As of August 8, 2023, there were six PennyCollector
machines with 4 dies each. Two were
not working properly. Locations: 4 machines at Cave of
the Winds building (2 at entrance, 2 in food area) 1 machine in Top of the Falls gift
shop 1 machine in Visitor Center gift
shop Again,
we can only offer sets from 4 machines: 3 from Cave of the Winds, and 1 at
Top of the Falls We have removed the Pennycollector
machine numbers because Pennycollector has two
different listings for the Cave of the Winds gift shop and employs two
contradictory numbering systems! |

THE
GENERAL Kennesaw, Georgia One
of the most famous and historic locomotives in the nation; the Union spies
who hijacked it to disable the South’s railroad network were executed and
were the first to be awarded the Medal of Honor (posthumously). Their effort was chronicled in the Fess
Parker movie The Great Locomotive Chase. The original locomotive is part of the
collection at the Southern Museum of Civil War & Locomotive History in
Kennesaw (formerly known as Big Shanty), where the saboteurs began the
hijacking. Design:

coins myself; I purchased them from another dealer/collector. Although they
are very clean, I have to characterize them as "circulated" because
