Default The Money pot... who can guess the best???

Now then, following on from these posts:

https://passionford.com/forum/general-car-related-discussion/197185-the-money-pot-who-can-guess-then.html


https://passionford.com/forum/general-car-related-discussion/197191-show-us-your-penny-copper-change-jar.html


My £1 coin pot is now full, so, who can guess the closest to how much is in there, I really have no idea!

It has taken me just over 2 years to fill up





And for reference to help your guesses:



Come on people, get guessing, and see who's the closest!!
