[QUOTE="ddoomm1, post: 1596880, member: 21808"]Hello CT! I have been on the forum for three years now and have just recently had by 1,000th post! :D I have decided to celebrate this milestone by hosting a 'guess the weight' contest. The rules are simple: 1) This contest is open to all CoinTalk members with more than 25 posts. 2) Answers must be given in pounds (lbs.) to the tenth decimal place (example: 10.7 lbs) 3) Each member may guess up to three (3) times (I would appreciate if all guess where in the same post!) 4) With any repeat guesses, the first correct guess will be the winner. *5) If there is a tie in that 2 guess are equal distance from the correct weight, I will randomly chose the winner, check out my post in post #4. **6) Please do not edit posts after 48 hours of posting (I'm not sure why but I threw this in). Ok, now for the contest. As a copper cent roll hunter I have accumulated many rolls of pre-82 copper cents. Your task is to guess the weight of these rolled cents. Attached is a picture of my 'hoard' and for those who might find it helpful, the dimensions of the box are 14in x 4in x 4in. The prizes are a 1961 proof Washington quarter and an off-centered strike Lincoln cent (about 60% off centered) with no date. This contest will close on New Years Eve (when the ball drops :) ). The winner will be the person with the [U]overall [/U]closest guess (so say the actual weight is 10.0lbs, a guess of 10.2 would win over a guess of 9.7lbs). Well I hoped I covered everything and I wish everybody a Merry Christmas!! -Dominik (ddoomm1)[/QUOTE]
