Didn't they have an episode where they bought a bunch of silver, melted it down and had coins made with the old man's face on them?
Even though you can take a $20 eagle to the bank and get $20 bucks for it.
So , how many pennies would it take to cast a bullet..Oh say a .45.?
I guess ,really, how many pennies are in a gram, or vice versa?
About 2.5g per post 82 penny
About 3.1 per pre 82
So 86 cents for 215 gr...post '82
69 cents pre '82
using 215 g .45 bullet
note to self "not worth melting pennys for making boolits, besides its not "legal" "..
Thank You
You guys need to define your "gr"s. Grains or Grams. One of you is talking apples, the other is talking oranges.
approx 454 grams in a pound
approx 7000 grains in a pound.
If memory serves.

He asked for grams I gave him grams
