Coins are weighed in grams so to start, you need to know that a US ounce is 28.35 grams.

US nickels weigh 5.00 gm so a pound would be 28.35 / 5 = 5.7, or 6 coins rounded to the nearest whole number.

Current Canadian nickels weigh 3.95 gm; 28.35 / 3.95 = 7.2, or 7 coins rounded to the nearest whole number.
