    €148.20 because one 20 cent coin always ends up left over! :mad:

    also i feel you are shafting us, i saw some sterling in there and the sterling makes the Euro look more plentiful if its hiding underneath the euro

    Have you got bags OP? If you don't and are just going to dump it into the counting machines that charge 9.5%, don't bother counting. Too much for Tesco self-service tills, esp now they have a tiny slot (ooh matron....)

    Start by separating into separate values! Then make collections of 100 x 5c etc, as appropriate for the bags


    Would someone be that lazy to be exposed to 9.5 %

    You could basically earn more per hour than most jobs , by just counting.

    There's machines for these things you know.

    You could make another type of mess in the kitchen too.

    They take a percentage, however your local barman doesnt and will be delighted for the change, banks charge for it so saving them money too. as long its not all coppers (insert lame joke about nightclub here). And you can have an excuse for a pint while you're at it :cool:

    This is a bit like those 'guess the coins in a jar' competitions you used to see at shows and such.

    Except there's no jar.

    Or prize.

    Rrrrright, that's not what I was expecting. I need to have a bit of a rethink now. Carry on lads I'll catch up. I was gonna go out tonight but I've cancelled the babysitter now, have to figure this out.

    The 50p is actually to the far right. I hope you're taking exchange rates into account. I bet theres several drachma and peseta there too from the OP's lads holidays abroad back when he was a young, care free, single go getter which have to be sent back to their respective countries of origin in the hope that their central banks will exchange them. Otherwise you're just wasting your time.

    well if we assume it is a circle - it is about 1100 coin^2

    there is about 12 euro in a 24 coin^2 - area

    If it was a flatish disc it would be 550.

    But sadly or hapily , it much deeper in middle.

    So making a large assumption (so i could hace guessed at start) that it is 3 coins height - meaning the extra volume is 1250 (coin^3) (lol)

    so volume gives extra - 620 euro (flawed a bit there)

    So I should have bleeding guessed.

    1170 Euro - and some british coins.
