Best Answer

About 25 dollars

CorrectionIt depends on when the pennies were made, assuming you're referring to US cents. Cents made since 1982 weigh 2.5 gm each, so there are about 181 modern pennies in a pound. That means 5 lbs would have a face value of about $9.50.

Older cents weighed 3.11 gm so there were about 146 in a pound, with a face value of roughly $7.30

Of course if any of them are collectible than they could be worth more than 1 cent each, and the whole question changes a lot.

There are 453.592 grams in a pound, so 5 pounds would be 2267.96 grams. A penny weighs 2.5 grams, so 5 pounds of pennies would be equivalent to 907.184 pennies. Therefore, 5 pounds of pennies would be worth $9.07.

How much would a 5 gallon water jug full of pennies be worth?

Well, honey, a penny weighs about 2.5 grams, so a gallon of pennies would be around 20 pounds. Multiply that by 5 for your 5-gallon jug, and you've got yourself a hefty 100 pounds of pennies. At 2.5 grams per penny, you're looking at roughly $194.72 worth of pennies in that jug. Hope you have some strong muscles to carry that load!
