Description:

A quick and easy swap -- just send one squished penny to your each of your two swap partners.

This is sender's choice so you can go get a penny from a location near you before you are assigned swap partners.

You can find a list of penny machine locations at www.pennycollector.com.

The best pennies to use for squishing are pre-1981 copper pennies (1982 and later are made with a zinc core). You can find them in your pocket change. If you want to clean your pennies before squishing you can use many methods -- the easiest being a pencil eraser ketchup (you can find cleaning info under tips on pennycollector.

One penny can be mailed easily in a greeting card or note card with one stamp most of the time. Just wrap some paper around it and tape it to the center of the card. I've never lost a penny in the mail using this method.

This is a US only swap but if any international people would like to set up a private swap you can send me personal message. I'm always open to penny trading.

Good swappers only -- newbies ok if you contact me first and have a filled out profile.

I'm excited. I LOVE squished pennies. I get them everywhere I go that has a machine.

I think this is the fastest I have ever sent out a swap from the time partners are assigned!

I haven't sent mine out yet. They moved the machines I was going to use and haven't been able to get to the aquarium yet. I will do it tomorrow or bribe hubby with a cream cheese braid to get them for me. I am such a doof.
