It will probably surpass $5 or $6 / pound eventually but that's too small of a move for me, and too slow as well.

France ---------------------- 1/2 Franc x 4480 (20,250g) 1 Franc x 3150 (18,900g) 2 Francs x 1934 (14,540g) Belgium ---------------------- 50 Francs x 1000 (7,000g) Netherlands (not much from this country but I'm working on it!) ---------------------- 10 Cents x 143 (286g) 25 Cents x 204 (612g) 1 Gulden x 180 (1,080g) 2.5 Gulden x 27 (270g) 5 Gulden x 30 (280g) I have 63,218g (63.2kg) of nickel.
