How many dimes in a gallon milk jug?

Answer 1

By volume per coin: 10,500 dimes, 4,200 quarters or 2,100 half-dollars. By the way, each add up to $1, 050.00, but the reason for that is another question! Pennies will give you about $77.71, nickles add up to $1,313.10. But that amount is a little higher than the actual amount which fills your gallon jug because of: coin wear, shape of the volume you are filling, how dense you can pack it. The average is about 27% less, or $766.50. See: http://home.att.net/~numericana/answer/trivia.htm
