The Domain, Parnell Auckland, New Zealand Website The Kiwi Pressed Penny Machine is located outside the main gift shop, near the museum entrance at the south side of the building. Costs $2NZ and a copper blank is provided. Four-die designs. As with the other kiwi pressed penny machines there is a hole-punch on the right hand side and they sell necklaces and keychains for your penny. Be careful when using the hole punch and only turn the handle ONE revolution or it will punch your penny twice.
This machine is very squirrly. Turn the coin knob slowly until your coin drops or it'll spit out in to the machine. Also, the machine pressed me extra pennies, some rolled very long as well.
