RARE Disneyland First Elongated Pressed Penny Collector Book NEW 2000.  Approximately 3 1/2" wide x 6 1/8" tall when closed, (it is a tri-fold) and approximately 10 5/8" wide x 6 1/8" tall when opened.


This is the first Pressed Penny Book issued by Disneyland, in 2000.  It was only available to the public during the first 2 weeks of August 2000.  Estimates are that 2500 were sold.


By far the hardest book to get, as it is the first, and also has a pressed penny embedded in the front cover.  The coin reads 1*9*5*5  2*0*0*0 with "Forty-Five Years of Magic" in a ribbon above, & "Disneyland 45th © Disney" below the statue of Walt Disney & Mickey Mouse holding hands. There is a picture of Aurora's Castle (Sleeping Beauty) on the front, and "Disneyland Souvenir Penny Collector Book" reverse embossed in copper colored lettering on the front.  It holds 36 pennies and 6 nickels or quarters for a total of 42 elongated coins.  Also has a Fast Pass pocket on the back (middle panel).  One of the most highly sought after Disneyland items because it contains a rare Disneyland elongated coin DL0146.


It is also filled with 36 different pressed pennies from the Disneyland Parks.
