    Answer: 2 quarters, 5 dimes, 11 nickels, and 1 penny.

    How I Got My Answer: Two quarters is equal to 50 cents, correct? Keep count - 2/19 coins, 50/156 cents. 5 dimes = another 50 cents - 7/19 coins, 100/156 cents. 11 nickels = 55 cents - 18/19 coins, 155/156 cents. Last but not least, 1 penny = 1 cent. That's 19/19 coins, and 156/156 cents. So basically, two quarters, five dimes, eleven nickels, and one penny.
