Six pennies (copper coated steel) equal 0,972 cm.
One meter and one centimeter
I have heard that there are $232 per inch.
17 million one-dollar bills would stack to about 6,091.67 feet high.
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.
To determine how many pennies equal one foot, we need to know the thickness of a penny. A U.S. penny is approximately 1.52 millimeters thick. Since one foot is equal to 304.8 millimeters, you can fit about 200 pennies in a stack that equals one foot (304.8 mm ÷ 1.52 mm ≈ 200).
A stack of 10 pennies (US or Canadian) is 1.5 centimeters.
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.
To find the volume of a stack of centimeter cubes you only need to have the dimension of one side. Once you get the dimension of one side you can find its cube to get the volume of the stack.
A common object that is approximately 1 centimeter tall is a standard paperclip.
From the US mint, one penny is 1.52 mm. This is .152 cm. With this knowledge, we can then multiply .152 by 1,000,000 to get 152,000 cm or 1 kilometer and 52 meters.
One meter and one centimeter
one penny is 1.55mm so one billion pennies would stack up to be 1550km or 963.1253 miles, 1550000 meters, 5085301 feet. In comparison the radius of the moon is 1,737.10 km Of course this would not be completely accurate because some pennies are slightly thinner or thicker, inaccurately pressed. Also how clean the pennies are could effect the height after a billion pennies (billion is really big) thank you for interesting question. I learned from it.
To Pluto & back
A mole of something contains 6.02214179×10^23 of them, so a stack of one mole of pennies would be: 6.02214179×10^23 x 1 mm = 6.02214179×10^23 mm high.
