Arggh . . . you really want me to smash my forehead bad, don't you? ;)
I know I'm going to have a black-and-blue mark on my forehead after I see what the answer is . . . it really looks familiar, but I just can't...
... and you'll let us know if your bank has any?
So, I sorted a couple of hundred cents, possibly close to 1000 (some from the bank, and some from a 24 year old jar of pennies I found in the...
