My boyfriend's mom has a jar almost exactly like that she puts change into and she said that it's for our daughter's college fund my boyfriend has a harley davidson cup he puts all his silver change in and another cup just for pennies. I ususally keep my change in the bottom of my purse if i get too many pennies then i put them in my boyfriends penny cup or my one of my daughter's piggy banks. she has one that's a buddha my dad only puts silver dollars in that's almost full.
