If your penny has a date before 1982, it is made of 95% copper. If the date is 1983 or later, it is made of 97.5% zinc and plated with a thin copper coating. Pennies made after 1983 weigh 2.5 grams. One pound of pennies weigh 453.6 grams. It would take 181.4 pennies to equal one pound.Pennies made from 1959 to 1982 weigh 3.11 grams so it would take 145.7 pennies from this era to make a pound. BTW: There are 50 pennies in a roll of pennies, so the entire roll would weigh a little over 4 ounces.f your penny has a date before 1982, it is made of 95% copper.

In mathematics and computer science, hexadecimal (also base Template:Num, or hex) is a positional numeral system with a radix, or base, of 16. It uses sixteen distinct symbols, most often the symbols 0â9 to represent values zero to nine, and A, B, C, D, E, F (or alternatively aâf) to represent values ten to fifteen. For example, the hexadecimal number 2AF3 is equal, in decimal, to (2 Ã 163) + (10 Ã 162) + (15 Ã 161) + (3 Ã 160) , or 10,995.
Hexadecimal notation (base sixteen) is used throughout the Web and computer systems to indicate values. One good example is the notation for color in HTML pages. Reading and using hexadecimal takes some practice, but the basic concept is no more difficult to understand than the ordinary decimal (base ten) system you've been using all your life.
