Yes, a coin is a conductor because it is made out of metal, as well as keys, sewing needles, and iron nails are all conductors.
Yes, electricity can pass through a metal coin if it is conductive. Metals such as copper, silver, and gold are good conductors of electricity, so if a coin is made of one of these metals, then electricity can flow through it.

The element nickel shares its name with the American or Canadian 5 cent piece. This is because the coin was made out of that metal or its alloy. The element was named in 1751, by Baron Axel Fredrik Cronstedt who first isolated it. In the United States, the term "nickel" was first applied to coins in 1859.
