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.

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!

What does 50 pounds of pennies equal in dollars and cents?

Assuming that you as referring to US dollars and cents, and that you are referring to pounds avoirdupois as a measure of weight (rather than British Pounds sterling as British currency), the answer depends on when the pennies were produced. Prior to 1982, pennies were 95% copper and 5% zinc, and 147 weighed a pound. Thus, 50 pounds would be worth about $73.50 face value (although the copper value would be perhaps double that). After 1982, pennies were 2.5% copper and 97.5% zinc, and 181 weighed a pound. Thus, 50 pounds would be worth about $90.50 face value. In 1982, both types were produced. 1943 pennies (made of steel coated with zinc) might skew your numbers a bit - 168 weigh a pound, and fifty pounds would be worth about $84.07 face value (although the numismatic value would likely be several times that number). The initial Indian Head pennies (before 1864), Flying Eagle cents, and of course the old Large Cents, would all have different weights than those stated above.
