Impact of coupons on price
You have looked at how changing the yield to maturity of a bond has a big impact on its price. Changing the coupon, i.e., the amount of money the bond pays in each period, can also have an impact on the bond's price. This is what you are going to investigate now by comparing bonds with high and low coupons.
