Presscoins.com - The Unofficial Walt Disney World Pressed Coin Guide

There are four new 2026 pressed coins that have replaced the 2025 coins at Epcot. The machine inside Disney Traders has a 2026 design with Spaceship Earth. Close to Disney Traders is the Port of Entry store and the machine in that store has a 2026 design with Donald Duck. The 3-die machine inside the World Traveler at Epcot's International Gateway has a 2026 design with Mickey & Minnie dancing. The fourth design is inside The Fjording at Epcot's Norway World Showcase. The 2026 design at that location is similar to the design at World Traveler. This new design has Mickey & Minnie standing close together.

We had previous posted that all the new 2026 Pressed Coins were on-stage except for the two machines in the Emporium at Magic Kingdom. Today we checked the two machines at Animal Kingdom and they both still had 2025 designs. So those two machines have not been changed as of January 4, 2026. We will post another update once we have verified that the new 2026 pressed coins are actually at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

A new 2026 pressed coin design with the Tower of Terror has replaced the 2025 Sorcerer Mickey design in Oscar's Super Service at Hollywood Studios.

We are getting reports that most of the 2025 pressed penny designs have been replaced with new 2026 designs. From what we have heard so far is that all the 2025 designs have been replaced except for the two machines inside the Emporium at Magic Kingdom that each had four 2025 designs. Last year there were sixteen 2025 pressed penny designs. This year it appears that there may be eighteen pressed coins for 2026. So far there are two 2026 coins at Disney Springs Pin Traders that did not have 2025 coins.

Pictures of the faceplates with these two 2026 designs are shown below. The 2026 Minnie design replaced the Pluto design that was in this machine. The other machine had a design with Rex from Toy Story and it was replaced with a 2026 Mickey design.

We have also noticed something that we were wondering about since the one cent coin will no longer be made for circulation. Disney in the past has been using uncirculated pennies in their preloaded pressed penny machines. We have already heard about other pressed penny machines at locations in other states using old circulated pennies and we were hoping that Disney would not do this and would do something else. What we are noticing is that the faceplates and screens are being changed to remove any wording that says penny or pennies. What is starting to be used instead of pennies is what appears to be copper plated zinc planchets that are a penny without the Lincoln cent obverse and reverse designs stamped on them.
