Broke Open My Piggybank Spent the Money In It

I open up my piggy bank
I bust it open with a hammer
and as I take out the change I count out...

27-pennies

fourteen dollars in quarters

35-nickles

361-pennies

Twenty dollars in dimes

took it all the bank change totaled out to be...
thirty-nine dollars and sixty-three cents
