So, we've figured out that Gates would pick up the $100, but unlike Pete G, I have an explanation for the pennies.

The likelihood of back injury caused by stooping isn't offset by the gain of 1c. I'm serious. If I see a bunch of change, or even anything silver, I'll always grab it, but pennies (singular) get to stay where they are. Let some other guy go to the chiropractor forever over 1c...
