This time there was a lot of coins inside.  I had nickels, dimes, quarters, twoonies and loonies in the piggy bank.  WOW!!  I have 4 times as many dimes as I do quarters.  I have 3 times as many nickels as I do dimes.  I have 5 less loonies than dimes and I have half as many twooines as I do nickels.  In total I have 130 coins.
