Two Cents

Brought to you by The Megapenny Project, www.kokogiak.com/megapenny.

Ever wonder what a trillion pennies would look like? Megapenny (not to be confused with James Bond’s amanuensis, Miss Moneypenny) can show you. And did you know that if you lay 16 pennies side by side, they measure one foot? If you stack the same sixteen cents, the stack is one inch tall. Remember this next time you need to measure something and have no tape measure, just a lot of change. Let the site walk you through how big a pile certain numbers of pennies would be, like 50,000 or a million or more. Cool beans! Count 'em!

Today around the world: 8 is Best Friends Day in the U.S. Love ya, BF(s)!
