David Tomita’s Guide to Disneyland Pressed Coins
David is one of the people that has made this hobby so great.
He is one of the very first avid collectors of Disneyland elongated coins and has loved to share the hobby
with others from the very start.
Even before he opened his web site,
David Tomita was a major contributor to on-line news groups keeping many new collectors up to date with new coin reports about Disneyland pressed coins. David Tomita's site was the first web site I found on the ’net. It inspired many early collectors and this web site.

Mr. Rosato’s excellent reference, offers history about famous names in elongated coin history and extensive history about elongated coins and how they are made.
ParkPennies readers are encouraged to refer to this 1700+ page corner stone book for in depth coverage of the hobby and profession. One can truly call this a coffee table book. It’s nearly the size of a coffee table! But, I can’t think of a thing I’d want omitted from it.
Available from the publisher and occasionally offered on eBay. Available at some selected libraries too. (ISBN 0-9626996-2-4)
