Advanced collectors will note that to this date, only The Disneyland Resort, Anaheim, has issued any elongated coins with reverses or backstamps. And, that that is because the backstamps are engraved or etched by the Disneyland Arcade Shop Cast Members. So, one might say, all Disneyland Resort, if not all Disney elongated coin backstamps are Disneyland Arcade Shop issues and should be listed in this one guide. If life were only so easy! But, nooOOOooo! Elongated coin reverses are listed based on the die / coin with which they are matched. So far, the coin reverses here are the only Disneyland Arcade Shop coin backstamps that have been listed in our guides. More will follow.
Elongated coin reverses or "pressed penny" backstamps
available outside the gates of Disneyland Park are listed in the other respective guides linked above. See also "
Disneyland Arcade Shop Elongated Coin Guides", "
Disneyland Canceled Coins" and "
Disneyland Elongated Coin Test Rolls" for additional details about coins in this "DS-R" Guide.
