Your guess had a .03 at the end. I assumed you thought I had a very small piece of the coin in the box as well. I won't say yet if I do or not obviously.

Guys this one is easy.

Troy Smith won the Heisman Trophy for Ohio State. He wore #10.

Eddie George also won the Heisman, he wore #27.

Rather obviously 1,027 coins are in the box.

1234 Hello There. <<<<WINNER WITHIN 134 OF THE ACTUAL NUMBER
1368 ACTUAL NUMBER OPF COINS!
1620 Debrajc
1625 DBM
.

I really liked that DBM guessed 1620 (the year the Pilgrims landed in New England) and CelticKnot's guess of 1024 (which is my birthday) I was going to say that earlier in the contest but when I did the math I saw that if somebody guessed directly in the middle of these two they would be pretty close to the right answer.

My phone isn't letting me send pictures of the boxes contents to my work computer right now so I will try again later, or early in the morning tomorrow if it doesn't work.

Thank you to everyone who played, and Congrats again to Hello There on the win!
