Ok, here are some Aussie cents. Pretty much the same size at 17.53mm.

This stack is 141 cents high, and took a few tries. I only got it this high after the kids went to bed and stopped running around.

latman what about wallabies, don't they shake the floors as well as the kids?

Anyway, valiant effort.
I won't be entering this one, I don't think I have a couple hundred cents in the house I can play with.

This will be just as fun to watch everyone else try.

Wheezy, no wallabies near here, but plenty of kangaroos. And I had to have a crack at it for the same reason you are watching, it was too much fun. Is that sad that we get enjoyment out of stacking coins? Here is the scenario, Wife: "So, what did you do last night honey?", Me: "I stacked a bunch of coins up to see how high I could get before they fell over." Wife backs out of room slowly....

That's funny latman. I was told that we have too much time on our hands. But, she did help with the first few attempts.

Getting a nice turn out. My wife laughs as I am cross country right now and using my phone to check on the contest.

I did say there would be bonuses throughout....

So how about a roll of Wheats to the highest stack as of 12 midnight Thursday night.....

Winner of the bonus will have to wait until I return home obviously before I can ship them, but they will be locked in and get their prize.

so get stacking folks.......

300 wheats. Over 19" high/tall.
Don't pay any attention to the whitish halos around the coins.
Bad pics. :)
