Default How much does 60lbs. of pennies equal?

Yeah, I know very stupid/random question, but I have to run 60lbs. worth of pennies through a coinstar machine and I'm curious to know how much is there. Based on my calculations I'm guessing there is about $120 there. How ------- cool am I going to look cashing in $120 worth of pennies. I love how they put those machines in the very front of the stores so everybody and their moms can see the ***** cashing in change for beer money. :P

Then I'd have to roll them and ---- that. Out of $120 they'll take like $10 and I'm more than happy paying $10 to not have to roll them. :P

some banks have a machine that will do the same thing as coinstar but no charge...call up ur bank, and if they dont have one as k where there is one for ur bank

my guess 104 dollars

453.6 grams in a pound
57.5 pounds
2.5086 gram penny

I know my bank doesn't have one and I've never heard of any other banks out here having one. I'm not real worried about the fee. It's something I consider "free money" that I never counted on having so paying the $10 isn't a very big deal. If someone wants to come roll them for me I'll pay you the $10. :P
