I completed the largest penny dump at my bank a couple weeks ago. Made me wonder what the record is? I mean someone has had to fill the machine right?
15,444 pennies is my personal record, took about 40 minutes to dump. Proud of that number, well not really

Well, you're not even close. 1,308,459 (but that was in 2005).

Max for me was 100 rolls years ago--all re-wrapped from roll searching.

1.3 million pennies is over 6000 pounds. Wonder if they looked at every single penny. Thanks for sharing the story!
