The distance to the moon is approximately 238,855 miles. If you stacked pennies on top of each other, a single penny is about 0.06 inches thick. You would need roughly 477,710,000 pennies stacked on top of each other to reach the moon.
No, 200 billion pennies laid out in a single line would not reach from the earth to the moon. However, stacked on top of each other, they would far exceed the distance between the earth and the moon.
Modern US cents are 3/4 of an inch wide, with an area of 0.442 square inches. The Sun is a sphere with a diameter of 865,000 miles, and a maximum cross-sectional area of about 587 billion square miles. To equal the area of the Sun's visible face, you would need 5.38 x 10^21 pennies (5.38 billion trillion pennies) - this could create a penny-thick disk the same size as the Sun. If you had to overlap the pennies rather than melt them down, it would take at least 6.85 x 10^21 pennies.
>3,519,500,651,162 that's how many Actually about 1/10th of that. Let see by using an example... The day before 9/11/2001, Donald Rumsfeld announced that $2.3 Trillion in transactions cannot be accounted for. The Pentagon wing with the Accounting records was destroyed on 9/11. So we will never know where the money went. How can we get a feel for how much $2.3 Trillion is? The Moon is an average of 384,403 km from Earth. That is 384,403,000 meters (384 million meters) That is 384,403,000,000 millimeters (384 billion) If the thickness of a US Dollar is about 1 millimeter, that means you could stack 384 billion dollars to the Moon. $2.3 trillion or $2,3000,000,000,000 would stack dollar bills 2.3 trillion / $384 billion = 6 times to the Moon As many times as NASA landed on the moon. (Yes they did.)
That was during the Cold War and we were competing with the Soviet Union to see who could get into space fastest. People were worried that countries would build military bases in space or on the moon, so they were trying to beat the other country there.

A stack of 10 pennies (US or Canadian) is 1.5 centimeters.
A penny has a thickness of approximately 1.52 millimeters. To find out how many pennies are in a five-foot stack, first convert five feet to millimeters: 5 feet is about 1,524 millimeters. Dividing this by the thickness of a penny (1.52 mm) gives approximately 1,003 pennies in a five-foot stack.
A single penny has a thickness of about 1.52 millimeters. Therefore, a stack of 1,000 pennies would be approximately 1,520 millimeters tall. Converting this to centimeters, the height would be about 152 centimeters.
The answer is 1,500 centimeters
A stack of ten pennies is approximately 1.9 centimeters tall. Each penny has a thickness of about 1.9 millimeters, so when you stack ten of them, the total height would be around 19 millimeters, which converts to 1.9 centimeters.
A penny is .0625 inches thick, so if you had a stack of 534,000,000,000 (five hundred thirty-four billon) pennies, it would be 33,375,000,000 (thirty-three billion three hundred seventy-five million) inches high, which is 2,781,250,000 (two billion, seven hundred eighty-one million, two hundred fifty thousand) feet high. This would be 526,751.894 miles. In metric units, a penny is 1.55mm thick, so a stack of 534,000,000,000 pennies would be 827,700,000,000 (eight hundred twenty-seven billion seven hundred million) millimeters high. This would be 82,770,000,000 (eighty-two billion seven hundred seventy million) centimeters. That would be 827,700 km. A stack of pennies this size would go around the earth at the equator 21.1533778 times! Going by the average distance to the moon (384,400 km or 238,855 miles), a stack of pennies this high would go reach the moon and back with some pennies left over (the exact value is 2.205320776 times). 534,000,000,000 pennies=5,340,000,000 U.S. dollars (thats five billion, three hundred forty million). That would mean you are tied with or barely richer than Giorgio Armani at #144 on Forbes list of the world's billionaires. If you have 534,000,000,000 pennies don't stack them, turn them into dollars!
The thickness of the US 1¢ coin is 1.55 mm. 100 of them in a stack rise to a lofty 155 mm = 15.5 cm.
The height of a stack of one million pennies would depend on the thickness of each penny. A typical US penny has a thickness of about 1.55 mm. Therefore, a stack of one million pennies would be approximately 1,550,000 mm tall, which is equivalent to 1,550 meters or 1.55 kilometers.
A US penny is 1.55mm thick. Thus a stack of 1,000,000 pennies would be 1,550,000mm, or 1.55 kilometers (0.963 miles) high. A Canadian penny is 1.45mm thick. Thus a stack of 1,000,000 pennies would be 1,450,000mm, or 1.55 kilometers (0.901 miles) high. A post-1992 British penny is 1.65mm thick. Thus a stack of 1,000,000 pennies would be 1,650,000mm, or 1.65 kilometers (1.025 miles) high.
A lot.
