So... fess up, everyone. How many of you piled some zincolns to look like Dave's pile of pennies and then counted them? I did! Still off by 25!

Congrats to the winners!

I counted 10, then took the area of that ten to cover the whole area, and figured it was the same amount through maybe 4 layers minus about 50... and i got my answer... if that makes any sense, haha.

Default my guess
My guess was just a SWAG too.. being more based on the times I have thrown pennies into a jar, and when it got full, counted them to have a close idea of how much I was turning into the bank to cash in. :tumble:
