#75I don't think the cube is stacked as uniformly as the OP thinks. Notice in this photo how the side of the cub right/side - the bills are not oriented in the same direction as on the other sides. https://calvin.sh/blog/fed-lie/cube-side.jpg/

Yeah, that many pennies would be really heavy.
Similarly, I always love it when small women smuggle suitcases full of gold in movies, when it would be heavy enough to break the handle off if it weren’t painted styrofoam.

#80Here's the go-to for counting stuff in pictures of lots of stuff: https://countthings.com/ This would probably be a hard case for it! But would be cool to see how well it works.
This is yet another link to an app that doesn't do what the author of the post actually specified.
