Well, you could... However, pennies are not pure copper. By the time the buyer would melt out the other metal, you probably would not get 1-cent for each penny.

So if the majority of the pennies are after 1982, you would most likely have about 23,586 pennies, which is equal to $235.86 USD. If the majority of the pennies are before 1982, you would most likely have 18,960 pennies, which is equal to $189.60 USD. But then again you can smelt the pennies and sell the copper. I hope this helped you. :)
