This Man Had Been Collecting Pennies For 40 Years!

Plenty of people keep a penny jar in the house, but for the last 40 years, Otha Anders of Louisiana has been taking that practice to a whole different level.

After filling up over a dozen 5-gallon drums with pennies, he decided it was time to cash in, and started carting the pennies down to the bank. It took them over five hours to count the bounty, but the most amazing part is what they told him when they were done.

I always get rid of any coin in my wallet.



Honesty is the best policy.

We ( Canada ) stopped using pennies 2 or 3 years ago, we round up or round down to the nearest nickle. Seem to work well.

Before cashing in you might want to go through every coin and look for some rare ones.....................
