So the winner is ElleKitty who was closest without going over.
Please PM me your Address.


To celebrate my return to the USA I thought I would hold a contest.

Question
How many coins are sitting at home in packages and envelopes waiting for me to open.

Hint I left Houston on the 16th Dec.

Rules
1 Guess per member
winner will be the one who gets closest without going over.
Check the other answers as if you guess a number that has already been used you will have wasted your guess.

The Prize
 A handful of Circulated currency from the various places I have visited in the last few years.

Bonus Prize.
If some one guesses the exact number I will add an ounce of silver.

Contest closes Feb 27th midnight

Answer to be posted 28th Feb

I'll be a bit more conservative and say ..... 16 ( that's of course unless you have some coin rolls among them)
