If the question is referring to the US unit of weight rather than British currency, the calculation requires knowing that a US nickel weighs 5.00 gm and a US pound converts to 453.592 gm.

15 US pounds is then 15*453.592 = 6803.88 gm, which is then 6803.88 / 5.00 = 1360.8 coins. Rounding to the closest whole number means there are 1361 coins worth 1361*5 = 6805 cents, or $68.05
