@haemoglobin: Shame. It's a nice photo althought. :D

People remember that we are guessing one photo at a time. And the current one is still this:

The guesses are still pretty far from the real sum.
I'd accept 5% error margin on the 'winning guess' though.
It seems to me that most of the guesses have gone slightly, or way over the actual sum, the picture has been made small for the purpose to pose a challenge, of course.

I guess that our guesses should be getting very close to the real value. Or then we don't have a clue. :D

I hope bin lauri could hint some more the real answer. Like giving us some details.

And in this bingo we don't count any notes inside wallets, under the table, outside the picture... :wink:

The amount guessed here is perfect, however the amount of notes is not, but we're looking for the sum anyway...

The correct amount of notes are as follows:

:note-500: 1
:note-200: 1
:note-100: 1
:note-50: 90
:note-20: 37
:note-10: 46
:note-5: 100

Total sum: 7,000 €

Nice! You have to have an error margin for such pictures having some 37 :note-20: or so. So one point for Elmo from this guessing.

Someone could now post another picture. I have few, but I understood that other people have some pictures in stock as well. So please, let's begin another turn. :D
