The number of nickels in a five-gallon bucket depends on how tightly they are packed. A standard nickel has a diameter of about 0.83 inches and a thickness of 1.95 mm. Roughly estimating, a five-gallon bucket can hold about 1,600 to 2,000 nickels, assuming they are loosely packed. However, this number can vary based on packing efficiency and the exact dimensions of the bucket.
