of change over the past 2+ years. I will now count it all up, get it cashed out, and put it all on Carolina getting 6.5
So how much money do you think 11 pounds of change is? Whoever comes closest without going over gets a prize!
Oh, in addition to the normal pennies/nickels/dimes/quarters, I have several half-dollars and a few silver dollars as well. Be sure to take this into careful consideration while making your choice.

11 pounds is about 19-20$
- The Jays - 01-29-2004
but what is it? Mostly quarters? Mostly Pennies?
- Keyser Soze - 01-29-2004
$25

what does it matter what denominations it's in? it's the same amount of money.

who the fuck thinks of the British system?

I was reading about british exchange on another board and I guess it stuck in my head. Anyway, my guess is $52.38

Approx 240 pennies = 1lb
So the minimum is $26.40
Yes I'm bored.

take it to commerce bank. they have that machine that adds up all your change for you. sometimes it screws up & gives you like a hundred more bucks than you deserve
- Arpikarhu - 01-29-2004
i am saying $75
- Black Lazerus - 01-29-2004
11lbs of change = $128
- Bloody Anus - 01-29-2004
Well here is the final breakdown:
500 pennies: $5.00
185 nickles: $9.25
208 dimes: $20.80
289 quarters: $72.25
13 half-dollars: $6.50
12 silver dollars: $12.00
making the total amount $125.80
So as usual, DIG wins.
I took the quarters and half-dollars to a casino, but that is all they accept. Quite gay.
I've heard that the banks here don't take rolled coins anymore because people weren't filling them up all the way. I'll find out for sure tomorrow.

you don't have coinstar machines?
- Bloody Anus - 01-29-2004
I'm pretty sure there are, but they take like 10% or something. Absolutely unacceptable.
- drusilla - 01-29-2004
that's why it's better to go to the bank
