Lucy the Margate Elephant

Margate, NJ
From collectors
Lucy is quite a sight and you can't miss her as you are driving down Atlantic Avenue looking for her! You can take a tour and go inside her with a tour ticket. Parking can be a bit of a hassle as you can't park on the beach block between peak daytime hours so you need to drive around neighboring blocks to find available parking with a long enough time frame to go visit Lucy and do your rolling. There are a few parking spaces for Lucy guest in front of her. Ticket purchase not necessary to get to penny machine.
Machine is located just inside the entrance to the gift shop to the right and is 51 cents for each coin you select. The designs are horizontal and have a plain dotted border (no initials and no other wording within the dotted border).
1) 'Battleship New Jersey', silhouette of ship above the word Battleship and then New Jersey written under that,
2) 'New Jersey Beaches', 4 Flip Flops,
3) 'Lucy the Elephant Margate, NJ', A picture of Lucy the Elephant,
4) 'New Jersey's Ocean City America's Greatest Family Resort', word logo.
