does anyone know what a 50 gallon drum holds

[goldteam]

for copper cents

If you fill one, you have roughly what in terms of dollar amount?

thanks

A drum is about a ton so almost $3000 FV. I am sure someone else will reply with more accurate figures, but that's a good ballpark for ya.

55 gallon drums seem to be the standard size, unless you actually meant a 50 gallon one of sorts. If 50, it would probably hold around $2700 FV

A little less than a ton. Wherever you decide to put it, make sure the floor can handle the weight.

Also make sure its on a pallet or something so you can easily move it later.

And, it is a good idea to put some kind of plastic lining in it before you start piling up cents.

I have some barrels of punch outs that are close to pennies and like everyone before mentioned around a ton (2000#) so what ever that works out to in pennies @ 68# per $100. Good luck.

Make sure the plastic is copper friendly. It can't have any chlorine in it.

I think it holds 50 gallons.

I think it holds 50 gallons.

Only if you shake it.. and those are hard to shake when full.
