A Large Collection
Going forward 45 years later, Anders had collected an insanely large number of pennies. He had managed to fill up 15 of the five-gallon water kegs he could lay his hands on. This was a large collection indeed. Imagine having 15 kegs filled to the brim with pennies. It was truly amazing to behold, especially considering his devotion.
The collection became so large that the pennies couldn’t be counted by hand. Based on Anders’ estimates, each keg contained thousands of pennies. Knowing the actual number of pennies was almost impossible, as Anders too had lost count a long time ago.
