4 quarters = 1 Lb.
Modern US quarters weigh 5.67 gm each, or 1/5 of a US ounce. There are 16 ounces in a US pound which is 80 quarters, or $20.
A quarter weighs 0.2 ounces, so it takes 5 of them to make one ounce. A pound has 16 ounces so it takes 5 x 16 = 80 quarters to make a pound. And you have 121 pounds of quarters, so that makes 121 x 80 = 9,680 quarters. But a quarter is one-fourth of a dollar, so these 9,680 quarters have a total value of $2,420.00.
Current US quarters weigh 5.67 gm, which is 0.2 US ounces. That means five quarters weigh one US ounce; a pound is 16 ounces so it's the same weight as 16 X 5 = 80 quarters.
That sounds like an excellent math experiment - see how many quarters it takes to fill one inch of the can - then multiply out how many inches tall the can is so you can know about how many quarters it will take to fill the whole can!
It would take approximately 72 silver quarters to weigh one pound.
There are 80 quarters in a pound, and each quarter weighs 5.67 grams. Therefore, a pound of quarters weighs about 454 grams (80 x 5.67 = 453.6).

A more reliable way would be to measure one pound of quarters on a very reliable scale, count the value of one pound, and then multiply by 18.

One stick is a quarter of a pound.
