Box #36 1975 copper total

Postby CU Baker » Fri Jan 14, 2011 5:28 pm

Box # 36 this year is the best copper recovery I have had since I started sorting. Before this box I was at 1149 copper, 9 wheats, and 35 can-copper. So now you have to guess what was in box #36. Go to the contest form and make your predictions for a 40% Kennedy half. It will end next friday at 6pm central. Have fun and don't forget the tie breaker.

Ok its over, Verbane wins the contest. The box ended with 1949 cu,21 canadian cu, and 5 wheats, for a total of 1975.
I wouldn't mind harvesting 79% copper from a few more boxes, but sure am glad this one found its way home. Check out the contest form for details.

My girl friend just came home from work, I let her read the post and let her make a guess for fun and she was looking at the cu in the container. Here are her #'s.

1638 cu
20 can-cu
10 wheats

Hint #1 she is low

Hint # 2 Add slapshot and cosairs numbers together and is still not enough.

If the tiebreaker is not needed whoever is closest will get a roll of CDN copper with the king.

This is total # of copper coins. Cu + canadian + wheats = total. I will add them all up and post it at the end of the contest. You can be over or under, who ever is closest.

Hint #3 This box is over 66 % copper and under 100%. Nine more kings and an Indian just jumped into the roll for the tiebreaker
