Actually, my brother got arrested Thursday and they impounded his truck so I had to pull some money out of my *** to help him out.
I've been wanting to cash these ******* in anyways before I get too many of them.

I saved coins a big water jug for a while and when my wife and I bought our house I cashed it in. I figured on mabye $85 but my wife thought $150. We walked away with $485 from the Coin Star. I love the Coin Star!

depends on if they're new or old pennies. Old ones were like 3.11 grams, and new ones are 2.5 grams (I think). So, on an average of 2.75 grams per penny, you probably have about 100 bucks there. Good luck

I was kinda worried about maxing the CoinStar out and having a very embarassing experience. 
I wasn't sure if they held that much coins.

A pre-1982 penny weighs 3.1 grams.
A post-1982 penny weighs 2.5 grams.
1 pound = 453.59237 grams.
to be on the conservative side. we will say.
453.59237 x 57.5 pounds of pennies = 26081.561275 grams of pennies
26081.561275/2.5 grams = 10432.62451 post-1982 pennies
26081.561275/3.1 grams = 8413.4068629032258064516129032258 pre-1982 pennies
10432.62451 post-1982 pennies/100 =104.3262451 dollars max.
8413.4068629032258064516129032258 pre-1982 pennies/100 = 84.134068629032258064516129032258 dollars min.
so you my friend have made anywhere between 84 dollars and some odd cents. and 104 dollars. and some odd cents.
i hope i didnt ---- up somewhere
