5.1 nickels.
It depends whether you're putting them side by side or stacking them. Side by side won't work very well because US nickels are 21.2 mm in diameter but an inch is 25.4 mm. If you stack them, the answer is almost exactly 13. Each nickel is 1.95 mm thick so there would be 25.4 / 1.95 = 13.03 coins in an inch. No one will miss that 0.03 of a nickel if the answer is rounded.
A one-inch stack would contain about 233 bills.
1303 Nickels stacked up would be roughly 100 inches. A nickel is 1.95mm thick which is 0.07677165 inches thick.
Assume that nickels are measured in diameter, and we want to form the certain number of nickels to form an inch. Let the diameter of the nickel be 22 millimeters, which is 2.2 centimeters. Note that 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters. Then, there is no definite number of nickels that exactly form an inch since: 2.54 centimeters * 1 nickel / 2.2 centimeters = 1.15... nickels [and we obtain the "incomplete" nickel to form an inch]!
Nickels are 1.95 mm thick, although that could vary depending on wear. 1.95mm is about 0.076-0.077 inches. So, it would be about 1298-1316 nickels.
If you mean, "How many nickels make a stack 1 inch high?", the answer depends on whether you're using US or Canadian nickels. Coins are measured in mm so you need to know that a US inch is 25.4 mm US nickels are 1.95 mm thick so you'd need 25.4 / 1.95 = 13 coins, almost exactly. Canadian nickels are 1.76 mm thick so you'd need 25.4 / 1.76 = 14.4 coins. You can't have 0.4 of a nickel so you'd need 15 of them to make a stack at least an inch high.

how many nickels would it take to stack nickels 100 inches tall
100 \
According to the US Mint, nickels are 1.95 mm thick. A US inch is equivalent to 25.4 mm so 100 inches are 2540 mm.Dividing those two numbers, 2540/1.95 = 1302.56, so you'd need 1303 nickels to make a stack at least 100 inches tall.

That depends on how many is in a stack
825,305 of them.
A single nickel in the United States has a diameter of 0.835 inches. Therefore, it would take approximately 1.2 nickels to make one inch.
The US and Canada are the only two major countries to call their 5¢ coins "nickels".US nickels:According to the US Mint, nickels are 1.95 mm thick. A US inch is equivalent to 25.4 mm so 100 inches are 2540 mm. Dividing those two numbers, 2540/1.95 = 1302.56, so you'd need 1303 US nickels to make a stack at least 100 inches tall.Canadian nickels:Canadian nickels are 1.76 mm thick. 2540 mm / 1.76 mm = 1443.182, so you'd need 1444 Canadian nickels for the same stack.
