The standard composition for U.S. gold coins was 90% gold alloyed with 10% copper for hardness. Half-eagles ($5 pieces) weighed 8.24 grams when new, so 90% of that or about 7.42 grams was pure gold.
To find the volume of 5 grams of gold, you can use the density of gold, which is approximately 19.32 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³). Volume is calculated using the formula: Volume = Mass / Density. Therefore, the volume of 5 grams of gold is about 0.259 cubic centimeters (cm³) when you divide 5 grams by the density of 19.32 g/cm³.
5 grams = 5000 milligrams, so 5 grams is much bigger.
The US nickel weighs 5 grams when new, so 12000 g is 2400 new nickels which is worth $120 .
