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.
