Coins are weighed in grams so it's necessary to convert US pounds to grams. Each pound is 453.592 gm so 3 pounds is 1360.77 gm.
A US nickel weighs 5.00 gm so 3 pounds would be 1360.77 / 5.00 = 272 nickels, rounded to the nearest whole number. Each coin is worth 5 cents so the total value would be 272*5 = 1360 cents, or $13.60
Modern Canadian nickels weigh 3.95 gm so the calculations are 1360.77 / 3.95 = 344 coins worth $17.20
