it says you can't use, not don't have.

I think it's one of those trick questions. Either that or you're gonna have to use weird old collectible coins. Can't do it with just dimes and pennys

i've tried pennies, dimes, and 1/2 dollar coins...grrrr.

Using dimes and pennies, it's impossible. The closest you can get is 45 dimes and 55 pennies, but that comes to 5.05.

1 half dollar, 39 dimes, 60 pennies.
