I somehow managed to save up $70 in coins in the ashtray of my old truck. If I hit the gas too hard, it would fly open and spray quarters all over.

I think that everything shuld be rounded to the nearest quarter, or dime. Nickles and pennies are useless, and just get in the way of everything.

dude pennies arent made of copper. they stopped making them out of copper in the 70s i think. thats why pennies are a different color when they are really old.
