So let's put one week in Denver in comparison to my most recent week here in NYC. NYC is a "cash pot". In one week in Denver I found 4 pennies. Over the past seven days in NYC I collected 89 cents! Though I must admit, tonight was a slight aberration to the normal seven odd cents I normally collect. Up until today, I had collected 24 cents -- that's still way above Denver's rate. In fact that's six times as much.
Then I found a mini pile. At the movie theatre, someone had dropped a lot of change and I guess decided not to take it. They left 63 cents. Hmm. I can see maybe leaving a penny, nickel or dime but two quarters? That's laundry money! So this was quite a good week and I'm closing in on twelve dollars.
Oh, here's a rather bizarre side note. My hairdresses also is a drag queen entertainer. I found this out on Thursday. So my friend and I were walking to the subway and were coming upon the establishment where my hairdresser performs. No sooner had I explained the whole situation then who walks out of the establishment? Yup. My hairdresser. It was if I had conjured him/her out of thin air. It took me a second to recognize him but he also recognized me. Anyway, quite a strange event.

Denver is significantly less dense, population-wise. And they don't have a subway, and thus no subway turnstile. Perhaps you should calculate a pennies-per-capita ratio for each city you visit?
