Send me a PM with your mailing addresses and also mention which coin you get. Here's my chart, MAKE SURE I have no errors or omissions. Click for larger image.

Thanks for the creative contest TNG. Cheers. Congrats to the winners. T-BOP will be happy. I was partially playing for him. He'll rub it in for years now.  . Good fun.

Thanks loonie! I did PM all 4 to get in touch and post. There was some darn close guesses. The jar used held only 8 ounces of water.I don't feel my experiment was conclusive. I still believe that a bucket of dimes would be worth more than a bucket of quarters. It's time for this old goat to hit the hay.

I figured they would be too close to call by face value. Yes, some very close guesses. Up here, it's sort of a standard that any dollar face value has the same melt value, so I figured that would crossover to filling your jars.

That 1950-D is beautiful, but because I love silver, I think I'll take the 1945-S
Thank you!
