I put a lot of time into the last contest only to be over in a few hours. My own fault, I underestimated you guys. This time, mainly because I have been horribly busy with work and at home projects in my spare time, this one is much simpler.

I have the five coins pictured below, some are slicks, so you will need to take that into account. All you have to do is guess the weight of all five coins combined to two decimal points (example 55.28). Whoever comes closest, without going over, wins. There will only be one prize this time, winner takes all. One guess per person and it will run until next Friday, 10/10/25 and end at 6:00 PM Eastern time, unless someone guesses the exact weight early and then it will be over. There can be no duplicate guesses and if there are only the first will count. I will try to update the guess list at least once a day, maybe twice. All are welcome to play, any country and if there is an issue with delivering, as I have heard there is a strike by the Canadian postal workers, I will just wait until it subsides before mailing. The only other stipulation is to have 50 or more posts.
Silver is hot right now, so that is what the prize is, the five coins you are guessing the weight of.

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions or if I have possibly forgotten something, which is entirely possible.
