This will not count your pennys 100% accurately but so far with my first test of 1250 pennies it was pretty dang accurate my scale could have been the one thats wrong. I came up with this because I did not want to count each copper penny one by one.
1. separate your coppers from zincs.
2.weigh you copper pennies
3. weigh your zinc pennies
4. convert the pounds of coppers and zincs to grams.
5. divide the grams for coppers by 3.11 because they weigh 3.11 grams
6. for the zincs divide the grams by 2.5 because they weigh 2.5 grams
example for my 1250 pennies
coppers weighed 1.8 pounds, and the zincs weighed 5.2 pounds.
5.2 lb= 2358.680 grams
1.8 lb = 816.466 grams
262.529260450161
2358.680/2.5= 943.472 zinc pennies
816.466/3.11= 262.529260450161 copper pennies
943.472+262.529260450161 =1,206.00126045016 pennies total
So in the end with this test just by doing this it was only off by 44 pennies and did not take hours to count them all.
