No offense, sir, but I answered this same question when you asked it last week. The only thing I'm going to add is that until the US went off the gold standard, The UK pound was fixed at US$4.80. The current exchange rate is listed below.
You still don't say what a copper is. Farthings, halfpennies, and pennies were all copper, and there is no way to tell which you are talking about. Old ha'pennies, pennies, sixpence, shillings, and crowns are all part of the old system and have to be converted to (new) pence using the conversions listed below. If you have any further questions, contact me directly.

You have mixed modern decimal pounds with old (Pre-1970) units of the old pound/shilling/pence system.

4 (old) Farthings = 2 (old) Ha'pennies = 1 (old) Penny
12 (old) pence = 1 (old) Shilling = 1 bob
20 shillings = 1 Pound, therefore 1 shilling = 5 (new) pence
sixpence = .5 shillings = 2.5 (new) pence
1 crown = 5 Shillings = 25 (new) pence
1 quid = 1 pound = US$1.97 as of 17 January 2007
Coppers? Could be old pennies, ha'pennies, or farthings.
64 ha'penny = 32 pence = 2 Shillings 8 pence = 13.33 (new) pence
