ManFromGlad, I don't know how small "small as a penny" is, but the penny in the photo below looks pretty big compared to the Digitrax DZ123 that I use. How did they compare in terms of price? Tony's trains has the DZ123 for less than $16. See http://www.tonystrains.com/products/digitrax_decs_small.htm
for details.

For the curious, the decoder is sitting on a Canadian penny which is the same size as an American penny.
