Can someone please tell me what 6d in old money in May 1903 is equal to
in today's money.

I can remember a daily paper cost 1d in 1948 ish and a pint of milk cost
6d in 1960, but I wasn't around spending anything in 1903, honest :-)


from http://www.wolfbane.com/rpi.htm

March 1915 to mrch 2003 is a ratio

179.9/4.2 = 42.83

ie 6d = 2.5p becomes 107p

from the data things were moving pretty slowly then so it will ot be far off
