Bill, apparently 10/- in 1755 is equivalent to £25 in today's money. On the other hand, today's 50p is approximately equal to 1d in 1755.

A great looking penny, Stu.

Neat picture Stu. I wonder what 50p would have bought back in 1755 !

Scott, it won't get a great deal; perhaps a packet of crisps (potato chips) - it's the equivalent of one US dollar.
