Very strange to get paid in pennies especially oil covered ones but only the bright side you can look through 91,515 pennies for varieties, errors, copper , wheat cents and Indian head cents.
Hi to whoever is reading this. Did you know that TYPEWRITER (on a QWERTY keyboard) is the longest word you can type using only the letters on one row of the keyboard.

Maybe the employer already searched them
That is a possibility.

Just paying a former employee in 91,000 pennies speaks volumes on the employer's outlook towards its "human resources." Then to cover the payment in dirty oil is plain mean (& environmentally toxic). Sad.
here in greece there is a law that you can t pay in cents big amounts in goverment cashier (electricity for example) because there were some people who paid 2-3 thousand euro bill in 1+2 cents..The worker could go to court for causing psycological problems to him,paying his hours for cleaning the coins,penalty for envoirement problems and claim for a new law so bosses can not pay in cents..

I pity the guy - lost his job and his boss pulls a dirty trick on him.
We don't know both sides of the story - I wonder if there is more to the story.
As suggested earlier - don't think searching through the pennies will be the first thing on his mind after being made redundant.
I'm curious how someone goes about getting that many pennies on short notice. I've been setting my change pennies aside for 35 years and only have 19,700.

Well the guy who gave them did run a business, so, presumably, he would have access to more than the average consumer would.
Also, with a lot of banks being closed it's not hard to imagine a business getting tons of pennies--especially if they commonly deal in them. Though 91,000 does still seem like a lot. Maybe he's been saving them for years for this very purpose.

Any valuable coins in that pile?

Probably. I might even look some day. I did comb through it with a magnet and came up with 3 1943 steel pennies, a bunch of steel Canadian cents and a few Canadian quarters, nickels and dimes.

looking at that pile I assume that you would find many wheat cents because they were more common to find in the 80s then they are now.
