This machine is no longer here. The listing stays up because collectors come back years later to check whether the one they remember was real.

From collectors

9/16/22: there is no machine in the powder tower lobby. The staff does not know where it went
04/08/23 still no sign of this machine.

The machine is located in the Powder Tower Building in the entrance lobby. It costs 1 Euro and uses 5 Euro cent coin for manufacturing.

Both designs have 'Kara Muzejs' on top and 'Latvijas' on the bottom. The designs are:
1) Picture of a Tower,
2) Image of a Cannon.

6/22: This machine was moved here from the Latvian War Museum (Latvijas Kara muzejs) and it works perfectly now.

Earlier the machine was supposed to press 10 santimi coins until the currency changed to Euros in 2014. Gift shop worker wouldn't make the change, but you can buy a postcard to get coins.
