A Big Box of Pennies



A couple days ago, someone left a tremendously heavy box on my porch. First I thought it might be full of nails, or nuts and bolts; but no--it's a box of pennies. I've counted out 5000 or so, so far, and I'm guessing there's still about 15,000 left.

Weird thing is, there isn't one penny newer than 1982, though there are some Canadian pennies from the 90's. And I've only found two wheatbacks...Oh well, I'm taking the first 5000 or so to a Coinstar machine later today.
