So... after 500 posts, I hope most of them helpful, I am now a Pillar!

So, it's time for my own pillar contest.

I've been collecting banknote for about 10 years now, and I've amassed quite a collection (I think)

Anyways, guess the dollar value of my current collection exchange-wise


Ground rules:

1. This contest will end 2 weeks from now
2. Dollar amount = forex exchange rate (as per XE.com), which will be calculated on the last day of the contest.
3. Exchangeable notes count, so in the case of European notes, Deutsche Marks are exchanged into euros and then on the last day, converted in USD. Nonexchangeable notes are worth 0.
4. 1 Guess per member, per day. All are welcomed!
5. I want to the nearest cent! Or half a cent... if you want...

Winner will get a fabulous prize!
2nd place will get something too, although not with the degree of fabulousness as the 1st place winner
3rd place will get something, too...

Have fun, all!

-- Changed title to be more "original"

-- 6th rule: to avoid confusion: my collection in this sense is the notes you see here, since I'm getting more and selling every day.

--7th rule: there will be a hint every day for 13 days (the first day doesn't get a hint!)

*********************************************************************
So all things are calculated, and the total is:

$1132.68

So the three people nearest that number is:

b_j_w_79 with $1144.00
dan8402 with $1150.82
DL20K with $1111.89


Thanks for participating all! PMs are sent to you three!
