One nickel weighs 5 grams, so 7 grams would be equivalent to 7/5 = 1.4 nickels.
All Indian head (a/k/a buffalo) nickels were struck in the same alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel. That composition has been used for all 5-cent pieces except the famous "war nickels" made during WW 2. The latter were made of silver, copper, and manganese because nickel was needed for the war effort.
Nickels in circulation today are composed of a combination of copper and nickel, which gives them their distinctive appearance. However, historically, from 1866 to 1942, nickels were made of 75% copper and 25% nickel, resulting in a silver color.
No, a 1920 Buffalo nickel is not made of silver. It is composed of a 75% copper and 25% nickel alloy. Silver was not used in the production of Buffalo nickels.
Jefferson nickels dated 1964 and before are typically worth their face value of 5 cents if they are in circulation. If they are in mint condition or are rare varieties, they may be worth more to collectors.

You could have: 8 nickels and 1 penny or 6 nickels and 11 pennies or 4 nickels and 21 pennies or 2 nickels and 31 pennies. The option of 0 nickels and 41 pennies is excluded by the necessity that the amount is made up of dimes, nickels and pennies; 0 nickels would mean the $1.21 was made up of dimes and pennies only.
