First estimate
A 5 gallon jug with just silver change (mostly quarters), and the total was 3500 dollars., so one filled with just quarters would probably hold around 5000 dollars or 20,000 quarters.
Second Estimate
In one test with a 5-gallon plastic water jug, it held $5200 in quarters and weighed 260 pounds (80 quarters or 20 dollars to the pound). This is equal to 20,800 quarters.
Mathematical Computation
To answer this requires only that you find the volume of a quarter coin, and divide the volume of the container by the volume of a quarter. This will give you a very close approximation, since obviously the coins cannot fit into every tiny space within the jug -- there will be some wiggle room (rattle room?).
Volume of a US quarter = approx. 808.93 mm3 or 0.80893 cm3
Volume of a US gallon = 3785.41178 cm3
5 gallons is then equal to about 18927 cm3 and dividing by the quarter's volume we get 18927 / 0.80893 = 23398 quarters
So the jug will hold a number somewhat less than $ 5849.50. The estimate of $5200 is reasonable, but it might hold quite a bit more if packed in. (You could, illegally, melt them down to liquid metal, but you would lose your money.)

How many dimes fit in a 55 gallon drum?
Assuming a dime has a diameter of around 17.91mm and a thickness of around 1.35mm, you could fit approximately 1,258,000 dimes in a 55-gallon drum. This calculation accounts for the available volume in the drum and the space occupied by a single dime.
How much money is in a 5 gallon water jug?
Assuming that the coins are all quarters, which have a volume of 8080.8 mm^3, using the volume of a 5-gallon water jug (18.9 L or 18900 cm^3), you could fit approximately 233,847 quarters into the jug, totaling $58,461.75.
How many dollar coins to fill a gallon jar?
To estimate how many dollar coins can fit in a gallon jar, we consider that a dollar coin has a diameter of about 1.043 inches and a thickness of 0.087 inches. A gallon is approximately 231 cubic inches. Given these dimensions, around 200 to 250 dollar coins can typically fit in a gallon jar, depending on how they are arranged and if there are any gaps.
How many dollar coins can fit inside a 5 gallon water jug?

How many quarters to fill a 5 gallon bucket?
To determine how many quarters fit in a 5-gallon bucket, we first need to know the volume of a quarter. A quarter has a diameter of about 0.955 inches and a thickness of 0.069 inches, which gives it a volume of approximately 0.2 cubic inches. A 5-gallon bucket holds about 1,280 cubic inches, so dividing that by the volume of a quarter, roughly 6,400 quarters can fit in a 5-gallon bucket.
How many one pound coins can fit in a 45 gallon barrel?
Gallon is a unit of volume, pound is unit of mass; you need to know the density and the most important fact is the arrangement of coins in the barrel.
How many quarters fit into a 1 gallon jug?
To determine how many quarters fit into a 1-gallon jug, we first need to know the volume of a quarter, which is approximately 0.2 cubic inches. A gallon is equivalent to 231 cubic inches. Dividing 231 by 0.2 gives about 1,155 quarters. Therefore, approximately 1,155 quarters can fit into a 1-gallon jug.

What US coins will fit in a vending machine coin slot that is 2 centimeters wide?
A vending machine coin slot that is 2 centimeters wide can accommodate U.S. coins that are similar in diameter. The coins that will fit include the quarter (2.4 cm), dime (1.8 cm), and nickel (2.0 cm). The penny (1.9 cm) will also fit. However, the quarter is slightly too wide, so the coins that will fit comfortably are the dime, nickel, and penny.
How many nickels fit in gallon jug?
A gallon is equivalent to about 3.785 liters. A nickel has a diameter of about 2.1 cm and a thickness of approximately 1.95 mm.
