No one has put one out there lately so I will. Sometimes the money just comes to you. My father in law asked me to get him a 5 gallon water jug for his change. I gave it to him yesterday and told him, when it's full he has to let me sort it out for him. He asked me if I wanted what he had now because it was breaking the container it was in. I said sure, I'll go through it, roll it, and take it to the bank but I get to keep what I find. So, I'm going to post a few pictures, and I'm going to let all of you guess.

The bucket is about 12 inches in diameter and there is about 7 inches of change. I will give the closest guesser something out of the bucket, you can be over or under but closest wins. Good luck.

What is the deadline for the last entries (when the contest ends) or is this the never ending Thread? Sorry, I had to ask because I did not see this posted!

$112.78. Thanks and HH
 

Deadline is, when I put the number on this post. Sorry to say, I got started on it the other night but caught some 24/48 hour bug. Was going to do more tonight but family comes before hobby. I hopefully will get more or the rest of it done this weekend.
 

The guessing booth is closed. Thank you everyone who put a guess in. I am sad to report that not a single silver coin was found. I will be sending the winner a message to determine if they would like to collect on their winning guess. Please stay tuned for an update. By the way, the winning guess was only .28 cents off the actual total. I think that is unbelievable. Thanks again
 

That's great, but you can give us the answer. Why do you think they wouldn't want to collect?

A suspicious cynical person might suspect that multiple people will be told they are the winner, in an attempt to garner as many home addresses as possible, to be used in conjunction with the previously vilified thread asking how many 40% & 90% are owned...

I'm sure that's not the case here.
 


The winner is RobRieman. The actual amount was $879.69 cents. Great guess Rob. My oldest daughter guessed $855 to take the family guess win. Thanks again everyone.
 

Congrats RobRieman! and thanks again for holding the contest barneyb71! :)
 

when are going to post the winner
