If the Pennies are from 1983 to Present, then roughly 181 pennies.
If the Pennies are from 1982 and earlier, the roughly 146 pennies.
There can be a couple ways to look at it. We will just consider a normal size US cent.
From 1983 to Present pennies weigh 2.5 grams
1982 and earlier (Modern & Wheat Lincolns) pennies weigh 3.11 grams
The difference is due to the a higher amount of Copper (95%) in earlier pennies. Modern pennies contain very little copper and are about 99% Zinc.
1 pound = 453.59237 grams
Math
453.59/2.5 = 181
453.59/3.1 = 146

According to the mint, from the United States Treasury website, to find out the mass of a penny, it also gave the mass as 2.5 grams.
6 lbs = 2 721.554 22 grams
2721.5/2.5 = 10886 pennies
or $108.86 US
