You need the mass and the volume.
If you have a graduated cup sitting on a balance scale
fill it part way and record water volume
slide the copper in
the water level goes up, measure it
the increase in volume is the copper volume
meanwhile the mass went up on the scale
the increase in mass measurement is the copper mass
the copper density = increase in mass/ increase in volume.
