$TON I just weighed a stack of eight bills with a postage scale, and came up with 1/4 ounce for the whole stack.

At 1/4 ounce per eight bills, you’d need 4x8 = 32 bills to make up one ounce. 16 ounces is a pound, so one pound of bills is 16x32=512 bills.

One U.S. ton is 2000 pounds, so 512 x 2000 = 1,024,000 bills.

These are $100 bills, so to get dollars at face value, we multiply 1,024,000 x 100 and get $102,400,000. For better accuracy, we could weigh more bills, make sure we were weighing hundreds (to account for things like the security stripe possibly changing the weight), and use something more accurate than my little postage scale to weigh them.

And of course, if you have a ton of money and it’s weighing you down, there are plenty of worthy things you could be doing with it.

(Yes, I’m aware there are different ounces and tons and so on. Feel free to do your own arithmetic if you’d like to use other units or other assumptions.)metric ton is 1000kg. (2204.623lbs)

A long ton is 1,016.047kg. (2240lbs)

A short ton is 907.185kg. (2000lbs)

I'm going to assume you mean a short ton, because that's the standard in the US. Presently, all printed denominations of US currency weigh almost exactly 1 gram. (Bills printed prior to 1928 were slightly larger, and therefore probably weigh slightly more, but I don't know the exact numbers).

There are 907,185 grams in a short ton. At $100 per gram that's $90,718,500 in a short/US ton.
