It means that a person is perfectly content to keep what they have (just enough to survive) rather than having to work, even though working would yield a much greater material reward and a better means of living.
The current Canadian penny, in use since 2000 and consisting of 94% steel, 1.5% nickel, and 4.5% copper plating, has a mass of 2.35 grams. So it would take 194 of them to weigh one pound (avd.), on Earth.
0.975 rounded to the nearest penny would be 1 (one whole penny).
If you are talking about 410.80 cents, then it would round to 411 cents. If you are talking about $410.80, then with a penny = $0.01, it is already rounded to the nearest penny.
Depends on which country's pennies you're referring to. 302 pennies makes three Dollars and two cents in the US and Canada. The Australian penny has been out of use since 1966. 240 Australian pennies made an Australian Pound. 302 British pennies (Penny Sterling) would make 3.02 British Pounds. However, British law allows refusal of payment in pennies more than 20 pence to settle debts. The Irish penny is no longer in circulation, as the Irish Pound has been replaced by the Euro.
Troy Pound value would be about $15,811.20
This phrase from Rip Van Winkle means that the characters would prefer to go hungry and be poor than to put in the effort and work hard for more money. It reflects their resistance to changing their ways and their preference for a simpler, easier life.
not very long.....
There are 225 2d roofing nails in a pound. If you need something longer like 1.75 inches that would be a five penny (5d) and there are only 145 in a pound.
a bad mutation would be if your DNA coded for you not to be able to digest fats. you would starve to death.
You would slowly starve and die, no matter how much you ate.
There are 100 British Pence in One British Pound. If you refer to predecimal British currency, 100 old pence would equal 8 Shillings and 4 Pence.
minks are carnivores and they are strict carnivores, if there are edible plants to many animals they wont eat it and they would rather starve to death
In resale value maybe a couple of pound, not much though, an uncirculated Victorian penny is only worth around £5
That would depend on the type (common, roofing, concrete) and their size as measured like a two penny (2d) nail and so on. For example 60d common nails are 10 to the pound and 2d roofing nails are 225 to the pound.
A current 1p coin weighs 3.56 g £1 = 100p → a pound of penny coins weighs 3.56 g x 100 = 356 g
The "everyday" currency would have been the penny. 12 pennies made a shilling and twenty shillings made a pound. The penny itself was divided into 4 farthings.
No You would have no food and die
