The most amusing part is that much money in coins probably wont be able to be deposited into a single bank, not to mention it will still have to be hand counted by someone.

I never put much stock in Samsung.
Then again, I never had much truck with Apple.
But goddamn… is even Apple evil enough to deserve THAT much Nickelback?

i heard the ghost of steve jobs used the money to buy that radioactive turtle
on a side note, no need to count coins when its easier to weight them
Its easier to put them in those coin rolls, and count those in sets of 25. Apparently bankers always count shit in sets of 25.

For future references.
To pay off a billion dollars in nickels would require 20 billion of those coins. That amount would require Samsung to obtain the equivalent of all the nickels struck by the U.S. Mint in the last several decades. (In 2011, for example, the U.S. Mint produced less than one billion nickels, and 2010 less than half a billion.) Samsung would have to round up virtually every nickel in circulation to acquire over $1 billion worth of those coins, a feat that could hardly be accomplished without having a significant impact on the U.S. monetary system.
