Somewhere along the line in '09, I got lazy and stopped cleaning my wheats. :sleepy2:

I'd rinse them and check for key dates, then throw them in a jar. I was looking at the jar the other day and thought that it might make a good contest. :)

Remember:
[size=14pt]This one is open to anyone who regularly posts their finds on the Illinois forum, or anyone in Illinois who agrees to do so in 2010.

One guess per person, please.

Here's the jar:

To win the contest, guess how many pennies are in it. Closest to the correct total wins this Morgan:

Just in case there is a tie, also guess how many 1940's wheats are in there. Closest to that amount without going over will break the tie.

Get your entry in by Jan 21 '09. On Jan 22, they all go into the tumbler and then get counted. I have no idea how many are in there, and won't know until the 22nd. :dontknow:

Good luck, MF's! :wink:
