A Cautionary Tale
Anders did not simply rock up to the bank announced, declaring that he was about to usher in a truckload of pennies. He was courteous enough to call the bank beforehand and inform its staff that he would be arriving with a very unusual asset.
A Cautionary Tale
Ryan Kilpatrick, the senior vice president of Rustin Origin Bank, was interviewed by ABC News regarding the startling moment. “It’s shocking, for sure. I would say he’s done a lot of collecting over the years.” Just how long had Anders been hoarding these pennies?
Heavenly Blessing?
Anders was not a young man, as you can imagine from his collection. He had dedicated 45 years to this endless pursuit. He was just a young man when he decided that a penny he had found on the floor would be the first of many.
Heavenly Blessing
It was in 2015 that The News-Star approached Anders for an interview. The elderly gentleman claimed that this pursuit was inspired by God as a way of reminding him to continuously be grateful. This is certainly a heartwarming idea.
