PRESS RELEASE: The Washington State Elongated Coin Museum will be opening *SOON*

The site is appropriate for children and is a mix of education, where did the hobby originate, to encouraging elongated coins as a new hobby.
The website is nearly finished.

PRESS RELEASE: August 1, 2014

The Elongated Coin Museum (ECM) has announced it will come on-line on January 1, 2015. The Elongated Coin Museum is the largest elongated coin museum in the United States. It started with a passion to collect every elongate in the State of Washington which grew – much to Kyle’s (the curator) wife’s discontent – into over 9,000 elongates.

The Squished Penny Museum
The Washington DC Elongated Coin Museum is CLOSED. Christine Henry and Pete Morelewicz, the curators had been running the Squished Penny Museum out of their home in Washington, DC for a very long time (1996-2007). They were great hosts who loved entertaining visitors and their web site had awesome info and trivia as well!
