Bags and boxes of ’em!
Cleaning out their father-in-law’s old home in Los Angeles, a family has found a forgotten cache of a million copper pennies (https://ktla.com/news/california/family-finds-1-million-copper-pennies-while-cleaning-out-los-angeles-home/). Not that anyone has counted them one by one, but a million is the estimate.
What do you do with a million copper pennies? The bank wouldn’t take them: the vault was too small to hold them. So they loaded a truck and drove–very slowly and carefully!–all the way back home to Ontario.
Crikey, it was like King Tut’s tomb! They had to navigate a crawl space to get to the treasure trove. In such a vast quantity of coins, there are bound to be some unique coins worth a fortune in themselves. But even if there weren’t, that’s at least ten thousand dollars’ worth of pennies!
You never know what you’re going to find stashed away in some old home that was inhabited for many, many years.
