As far as I can see there's
50+2+3
25+20+10
25+25+5
25+15+15
20+20+15

Other than those I can only see combinations of each set of 3 i.e. 50+3+2, 2+50+3, 2+3+50 etc.
2 needs 3 ... 2+3+50
5 needs 50 (2 ending 0 or 5) ... 5+25+25
10 needs 45 (1 ending 0, 1 ending 5) ... 10+20+25
15 needs 40 (2 ending 0 or 5) ... 15+20+20 ... 15+15+25
... we've included the other numbers. So 5.

But I'd check me!
