Couple Stumbles Upon Treasure Trove of 1 Million Pennies in Crawlspace

  • A California couple found over 1 million copper pennies in the crawlspace of Elizabeth's father's former home in Los Angeles.
  • The pennies were found while the family was cleaning out the home with plans to renovate it.
  • The home was built in the early 1900s and the family members believe it once operated as a bed and breakfast.
  • The family has listed the coins on OfferUp for $25,000, more than double the estimated $10,000 value in normal currency.
  • The father-in-law likely purchased copper pennies knowing that their value would increase over time.
