1 quarter weighs 5.67 grams

there are about 80 quarters in one pound

dimes: 200*10=2000cents=$20

To some of the other answerers:

The question is not which one weighs more

They are of equal value:

There are 200 dimes in a pound= $20..

There are 80 quarters in a pound= $20.00

If it is the closest to a pound without going over then it would be a lb of dimes at a value of $19.90 to the lb quarter at $19.75 or otherwise.

Both equal $20.

quarter = 5.7g

dime = 2.27g

A pound is 453.6g

$20 of quarters = 456g

$20 of dimes = 454g
