Hey everybody! I'm new to the site, and have been stacking for about a month. I think it's $100.00 FV but I just didn't know what the technical term is. Sorry if its a stupid question, but any help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

It is $100 face value of copper pennies, and CTU stands for "Copper Trade Unit"

Spot on sir.
$100 face value = 1 CTU = Copper Trade Unit.

Welcome Decky to the forum!!!
The reason for the CTU, is that it weighs approximately 68 lbs, which fits nicely in the Flat rate priority box (70 lb max).

Of course the $100 is all copper US pennies. We invented the term to define a standard amount for easy shipping.
