US cents ("pennies") minted since mid-1982 weigh 2.5 gm each. There are 100 cents in a dollar so a million dollars' worth would be 100 million pennies. At 2.5 gm each their total weight would be 250 million grams. Converting to more-manageable units, there are 1000 grams in a kilo and 1000 kilos in a tonne, so there are a million grams in one tonne. Therefore 250 million grams is 250 tonnes. A large car weighs around 2 tonnes so figure the pennies would weigh about as much as a 125 cars.
All pennies minted after 1982 weigh 2.5 grams each. (Older pennies weigh 3.11 grams) Newer cents are made of zinc because the price of copper increased so much that a copper penny was worth more than one cent. So a roll (50 pennies) would weigh (2.5g times 50 = 125 grams) (125g divided by 28.35 ounces = 4.41oz) (4.41oz divided by 16oz =.28lb) Summary. 50 pennies (1 roll, not counting paper in the roll) (add about 1.5g for the paper) = 125 grams or = 4.41 Ounces or = .28 Pounds or = Probably almost 1/3 of a pound counting the paper.
