A photo shared by Reyes shows bags of pennies on top of each other.
"Many of these bags are actually sealed, they're lead sealed directly from the bank," Reyes said. "As we start looking through we see some of the big banks, like Bank of America, and at the same time we also saw banks that we have never even heard of, maybe banks that don't even exist anymore. So we were just like 'Wow this is amazing.'"
