I wonder if they will use a shop-vac to pick them all up?

That would be the easiest way to do it. How else would they clean that up. They didnt say though how many pennies they had so far?

I heard them mention a million. But it could end up being more

LOL!  That woman cracks me up! "If you can do this, you can do anything." ROFL....oh yea, it takes real talent and skill to line up cents (they are not pennies). I think she should design the next space shuttle for NASA now that she can do anything.  I dunno, seems pretty dumb to me, but I'd sure like to go through all those to look for keepers!

jbuck if you used that machine to clean up their mess, you could set a Guinness World Record for the fastest dis-assembly of a current record!

amac44 if you are like me then you are glad that you live no where near that area because roll searching for the next few years is going to be completely useless. How fun is it going to pick up a coin from a roll with a high grade on one side and scratched to death on the other.
If this was being done with animals PETA would have been out there in a minute, where are all the picketing coin collectors?

Since Copper is so valuable, why not just use a bull dozer, push all into a pile, torch them into one big ball of Copper and Zinc and sell to those metal recyclers.

Being from Kansas myself, I'll wade in ! We will end up "picking them up" in a rural community way I'm sure.....something to do with cow pies, pick up trucks, beer, and a town festival probably. GIVE US A BREAK ! THERE'S NOT A LOT TO DO HERE !....... (the phrase "Watching paint dry" was invented here in Kansas as an actual sport!)
