One of the heaviest is from Russia -
5 Kopeks from 1763-1796 weighed 53.08gm of copper.
The 10 Kopeks from 1763-1781 weighed 60.4gm of copper.
In Britain the 1 Penny of 1797 only had 28.35gm of copper -
but the 2 Pence of 1797 had 62.21gm of copper,
and so is probably the answer. Nicknamed the cartwheel.
The percentage of any metal in a coin would depend entirely on the coin and the country it came from. An Australian 1962 "copper" coin (bronze) contains 97% copper. An Australian 1962 "silver" coin (cupro-nickel) contains 40% copper. A British 1962 "copper" coin (bronze) contains 97% copper. A British 1962 "silver" coin (cupro-nickel) contains 75% copper. An American 1962 "copper" (bronze) 1¢ coin contains 95% copper An American 1962 "nickel" 5¢ coin is actually 75% copper An American 1962 silver coin is 10% copper, with the rest silver.
The penny. Anything dated later than 1982 is copper-plated zinc.
A one peso coin weighs 20 grams and contains 75% copper by mass. To find the amount of copper, multiply the total mass by the percentage of copper: 20 grams × 0.75 = 15 grams. Therefore, there are 15 grams of copper in a one peso coin.
A British 10p coin contains 75% copper and 25% nickel.
Assuming the peso coin contains 100% copper, you would need to calculate 75% of the total mass of the coin to find the amount of copper. For example, if the coin weighs 10 grams, you would multiply 10 grams by 0.75 to find that there are 7.5 grams of copper in the coin.
.750 copper & .250 nickel Weight 5 grams
Very little. Cents minted since 1982 are made of zinc with a copper plating that amounts to only 2.5% of the coin's weight. The total weight of the coin is 2.5 gm so the amount of copper is 0.025 X 2.5 gm, or .0625 gm
An amount of copper that size is probably worth very little (not even enough to be exchanged for cash).
The mass of a copper coin can vary depending on the size and denomination of the coin. On average, a copper coin like a US penny weighs about 2.5 grams.
The 1975 cinco peso coin from the Philippines contains 40% silver and 60% copper.
The 25 centavo coin from Mexico is composed of aluminum-bronze, which typically contains approximately 92% copper, 6% aluminum, and 2% nickel.
Depending on the coin and the pin, it would be most likely that the coin is much heavier.
