Change count

Yesterday I found 35 pennies and 1 dime on the ground in an alleyway. It was like I found a treasure!

I speculated on how that many pennies got there, and these are the scenarios I came up with:

1) A kid emptied his mother's change purse out the window when they were driving by.
2) There was a bag of pennies and one dime that two people were struggling over, which ripped open tossing all it's contents in the alley just as a bear came by and scared the two people, so they ran away and left the change there.
3) Somebody really hated all those pennies in their pocketbook/wallet/purse and just tossed them.
4) Somebody knows just how happy it makes me to find change on the ground and left it there for me to find, making my day!

I'm sure there are other scenarios, but these were the first to come to mind.
