Copper coin ample? (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

policeman

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'copper' is the definition.
(I know that copper can be written as policeman)

'coin ample?' is the wordplay.
'coin ample' can be anagrammed to 'POLICEMAN'.
However, I am unsure how the anagram is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for policeman that I've seen before include "Constable" , "Member of the force" , "He's responsible for the maintenance of public order" , "Constabulary member" , "officer" .)
