That is enough pennies to sink an aircraft carrier, and have plenty to spare too.

My first thought was "a million pennies didn't take up much volume..." but if you tried to put them into your pants pockets, you would have a problem.

It is about time we stop minting them for circulation; though I have no problem keeping them around for mint and proof sets.
