14 dimes, 2 nickels.
3 quarters, 11 nickels, 2 dimes.

16 x 9cents, 1 x 6cents

But really,
14 dimes, two nickels.

Pretty much people would solve it by now :o
anyways 14 dimes 2 nickles

Miga wins :3

I'll post a new one tomorrow.

I may have read it wrong, actually. I wasn't sure if he was asking for two different combinations of what coins could be in your pocket (like 14 dimes, 2 nickels OR 3 quarters 11 nickels and 2 dimes), or if he was asking for two different types of coins that could be in your pocket.

Either way, I think I'm still right.

Miga wins :3

I'll post a new one tomorrow.
forget yeah. :D

I hope he actually gives a really challenging one like the real equation of pie
(insert paradox here)

Damnit that song is stuck in my head D:
Nice Job Kalphiter.

EDIT: wait did you just hit a bunch of random numbers? link plz if so

I hope he actually gives a really challenging one like the real equation of pie
(insert paradox here)

Pi = C/D

Here's an easy one:

You have 2 coins in your pocket that equal 55 cents. One of them is not a dime. What are they?

Half Dollar+Nickel

Fail.

A penny and a 54 Cent Coin.

Only ONE of the coins wasnt a nickel.
