Four Penny Set

Clock Tower The pendulum of this clock tower is 13 feet long and weighs 67 pounds. It takes 3.75 seconds to complete one cycle and the clock is very accurate. The clock tower is 18 feet tall so it goes 8 feet above the ceiling. The clock mechanism is from the early 1800s. You can see photos of the clock tower if you visit the Conger Street Clock Musuems website.

Lucky Horse Shoe Everybody needs a lucky horse shoe. In the museum you have to insert 4 quarters and the penny you want to smash. Next the large rollers smash the penny leaving the impression of one of the features from our museum. We give you all four smashed pennies and will even include a couple of the millimeter to inches rullers like the one we use to show the size of the smashed coins.

Model T Ford Coin Everybody loves the old Ford Model T. This coin represents a 1912 Model T Ford. The old ford of that time had a 4 cylinder motor and everyone that owned one was a mechanic. If you had a little bailing wire, a little wrench, a big hammer, and a lot of patience you could keep your old Tin Lizzy going forever. Or at least until you ran out of gas, or blew a tire. Both common problems of the time.

The Telephone Coin The telephone display at the Conger Street Clock Museum is one of the more popular displays at the museum. The display contains more than 100 old telephones and telephone related items. There is even one of the first pay phones from 1894 on display as well as a working telegraph.

The Conger Street Penny Pincher The penny drops down a long tube and ends up between the two wheels of the dye. One wheel contains the pattern and the other wheel is mirror smooth. The wheels are extremely hard and as you turn the crank handle, the penny is forced between the wheels with several Thound pounds of pressure. The penny comes out elongated and retaining the pattern of the dye.
