You set the no. of coins as powers of 2 except for the last bag where you just place whatever remains.
Bag 1 = 1 coin
Bag 2 = 2 coins
Bag 3 = 4 coins
Bag 4 = 8 coins
Bag 5= 16coins
Bag 6= 32coins
Bag 7=64 coins
Bag 8= 128 coins
Bag 9= 256 coins
Bag 10= 488 coins ( If the total no = 1024 coins this should be 512)
