Otha’s story
In 2015, Otha Anders was 73 years old. A quick calculation brings us to the conclusion that Anders saved his first penny when he was only 28 years old. He didn’t start his collection to get rich, he explained in an interview. Instead, he had a much nobler reason for starting his collection. Anders saw more than just change in the money he saved.
The American man told News-Star that the pennies reminded him to be grateful. “I realized that finding lost or abandoned coins was a sign from God to remind me to always be grateful,” he said in the interview. Moreover, Anders went quite far to collect all this money, but with this motivation in mind, he managed to last 45 years.
