I have a bag with 21 pounds of Jeffs, I wondering how many are in there without running them through a coin counter (they are all Unc).
It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    1 nickel= 5 grams

    1 pound= 453.59237 grams

    x21=9525.43977

    /5=1905.087954

    5 grams per nickel according to the redbook, 453.6 or so gramps per pound so ignoring wear, 90 to 91 per pound.

    None. The Jefferson nickel is U. S. coinage and the pound is U. K. coinage.
