Gone1 machine

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

Machine is located near the entrance of one of the souvenir shops located on the left side of path as you walk from the parking lot through the park toward the Temple of Heaven. The machine does not accept money directly, but if you pay an attendant 10 yuán, the machine will be manually enabled so that you can select one of the three designs to be squished onto a very shiny copper blank (China's copper coins having been discontinued long ago). 30 yuán gets you a complete set.
