If you had $60,000 in $20 gold pieces, you would have 3,000 coins.
60,000 / 20 = 3,000
If each coin weighed 33.43
grams, the total weight of the coins in grams would be
100,290 grams.
3,000 x 33.43 grams = 100,290 grams
Now convert grams into pounds.
Answer: 60,000 dollars in gold coins would weigh about 221 pounds.
No wonder it took a whole gang to carry it off!
