OK here it is- the eagerly anticipated Week #5 contest! No random drawing here, ya gotta work for this one. The prize is some gently used silver coins. Here goes...

I want you to guess how much loose coin is residing in my vault at work as of Friday March 4 2005.

By loose coin I mean sitting around in bags and cans, not rolled and ready for use.

This contest is open to everyone, I will pay postage to anywhere. Contest ends Saturday March 12 at 3pm Indiana time.

Now I'm gonna slip into Bob Barker mode for a minute. If you are the winner and your guess is less than $25 from the actual amount of loose coin, I'll throw in a bonus prize. (Bonus prize yet to be determined. )

One guess per member, post all guesses to this thread, in case of a tie the member who got their guess in first wins.

OK, that's it- good luck everyone and have fun!

I gues with only one guess per member there will be no higher/lower - warmer/colder type clues

All right! If you haven't gotten your guess in- time's running out! Go ahead, take a stab at it!

I think I forgot to mention it in the original post- your guess can be over or under and still be the winner!

All right if you are going to change the rules, "I think I forgot to mention it in the original post- your guess can be over or under and still be the winner!", then I want to change my guess to........
One dollar two nighty-seven. Give or take a coffee break or two!

All right! Time's up! Here's the winner....

(drum roll)

The actual dollar amount of loose change in my vault was $1598.92, so that makes our winner Mila_cent!

Congratulations! Send me your address and I'll get your prize out to you! Thanks for playing!
