<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PaddyB, post: 1672724, member: 40017&quot;]Yes - it is Gold that has stayed the same and everything else that has changed! A Sovereign in 1912 was One Pound in the UK. The same sovereign now, due to it&#039;s gold value is worth about £250. But one pound in 1912 would buy about as much as £250 now. (A quality newspaper then was a penny ha&#039;penny, and there were 240 pennies to the pound. The same newspaper now cost £1.50.) </p><p><br /></p><p>Doesn&#039;t answer the OP question, but still interesting I think.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
