Comment

The elongated coin is one that has been flattened and embossed with a new design depending on the pattern of a die-hard steel roller capable of re-imprinting a new design into the original coin. Such coins are often used as commemorative or souvenir tokens can be made by visitors themselves in combination with pressing machines located in tourism hubs (museums, amusement parks, and natural or man-made landmarks).
