$A$ given coin has a mass of $3.0\; g$. Calculate the nuclear energy that would be required to separate all the neutrons and protons from each other. For simplicity, assume that the coin is entirely made of $_{29}^{63} Cu$ atoms (of mass $62.92960\; u$).

The value of $1 \, \text{a.m.u.}$ is equivalent to how many $MeV/c^2$?
